Faced with this accusation from the student, wouldn't any responsible employer have no choice but to launch a thorough investigation? And wouldn't they have to keep things private till they got to the bottom of it? Don't those of you calling for immediate answers understand that an employer has to protect his employees' rights?
What I'm trying to understand about the investigation is, to be blunt, what's taking so long? It's not as though UCD is investigating an international money laundering ring, or whether string theory really does reconcile different schools of physics. They're trying to figure out whether campaign signs were put up at a rally, and if so, who requested them, and who put them up. I think that's part of the frustration that some people are expressing. What does another week teach you about the incident that you didn't know a week ago? Clearly at this point they have interviewed the key players and have (probably) competing views of what happened. Now what? Moving on... One possible outcome could be, hypothetically, for all parties who can't imagine life without John Fenton to create a corporation, the University City Clean-n-Safe Co., and to pool the money they would otherwise have given to UCD into this new organization. The new company would give Fenton a handsome raise and hire him a small crew. My impression is that John Fenton is singlehandedly more valuable to the neighborhood than is the rest of UCD combined, in terms of concrete action and an accumulated network of connections. I can even imagine people who would not want to donate to UCD being persuaded to donate to UCC-n-S. Just my opinion, I'm not trying to hate on UCD here.
