When Renee Knake Jefferson joined the MSU Board of Trustees a year ago, she was granted access to what at the time was said to be 6,000 documents. On Friday, she told Trustees that the number instead was nearly 9,800. She says she found them to be consistent with information already known to the public.
Knake Jefferson proposes a ramped-up presidential review process, and uniformity across campus units in the handling of sexual misconduct allegations. “I recommend that the board release these documents for an independent review, she told her fellow Trustees, after which the body conducting the review would issue a public report along the lines of what the board had previously approved back in June of 2019.”
