Board of Trustees meeting gives floor to divided campus

By Avani Kapur

The Board of Trustees held a scheduled, spring meeting at Kean Hall on March 5, where students and faculty expressed their opinions of the recent decision to keep President Farahi.

In a public comment session that lasted just under an hour all but one of 17 speakers voiced their opinion of the board’s decision to retain Farahi on Feb 15.

James Castiglione, KFT President, said that research done by several faculty members showed irregularities in the vote including the abstention of a board member and some votes being recorded incorrectly. He added that political influence was possible being that reports of sources that said Senator Lesniak was in Kean Hall on the night of the vote.

“The board must act to restore integrity before it is too late,” said Castiglione.
