Justin will need to approve final version too. Call now? L 03:09:41 pin Sorry im so frustrated. That you continue to tell me what Justin thinks. . after the mess you find yourself in. As 75 % the result of his tactics 04:06:35 pm The appeal doc must be great. . much harder now that they have admitted to ignoring less damaging info. Over and over. . makes them seem fair. This is only about the emotion. ! negotiation etc. legally you are done 04:07:41 pin • EFTA01614005  Lawrence Thanks. L 04:08:30 pm Lawrence Your arguments re unfair , are tricky.

L 04:12:51 pm Its not about it any longer. Emotion . The rules are specific that it is not a courtroom. 04:15:19 pm Lawrence • Yes. Emotion. I am good at that. L 04:15:41 pm You are. . point out the ridiculous. Make them look silly not angry 04:22:30 pm • EFTA01614006  Lawrence How about this? A little more direct and honest and still lets people know before buzzfeed and deals with ththe many questions from fans that will come over twitter after story. "Many people have inquired about the future of the Origins Program. My second five year term as director of expired July 1 of this year and the university has decided it will not be renewed for another term. It has been a great honor to create and lead Origins over the past decade. I am very proud of what my team has accomplished for the university and broader community during this time. The University has appointed my close colleague Lindy Elkins Taunton to be the new director of this program and am confident she will move Origins forward in new and interesting ways." L 04:28:49 pm no 04:29:10 pm Lawrence The elephant is being ignored 04:29:34 pm • So when 1000 twitter questions come in after buzzfeed story I should just say nothing? This states that university has decided not to renew me. It also is my only statement about the past decade. it is heartfelt. It is a statement about the future of Origins. Not a statement about me. I can write something else about me later. Or nothing. 04:44:28 pm By or nothing I mean write nothing at all. L 04:44:50 pm you can't say anything at all if you will not addresss the sex issue. . either you will address it in the future in the appropriate forum. Or say nothing. A pablum like response, will be seen as disengious 04:49:05 pm • EFTA01614007  Lawrence I hate to let the world hear about this first from buzzfeed and I don't want to put words in university's mouth. I want to put out something short and simply informative. Let me think. 04:52:04 pm "It has been a great honor to create and lead the ASU Origins Project over the past decade. I am very proud of what my team has accomplished for the university and the broader community during this time. The University has decided not to renew my appointment as director. My close colleague Lindy Skins Taunton will be the new director and I am confident she will move it forward in new and exciting ways. " 04:57:57 pm This is short and factual and makes it clear university made this decision to remove me. L 04:58:37 pm It sounds like a eulogy, the great honor is not outweighed by the unfairness 05:07:11 pm Lawrence I agree but I need to say something. It is a eulogy. It leaves much to the imagination and the supporters will say it is unfair and the haters will say about time. But it doesn't let buzzfeed lead. And I cannot allow that. L 05:09:21 pm I intend to allow public scrutiny of all that has transpired in an air of total transparency so that the public can make up its mind. However at the present time my appointment will not be renewed as director of origins. Then 05:47:07 pm Lawrence Thanks. Will draft something with incorporates this idea.
