In West Va., the Jesuit president of Wheeling Jesuit University was fired by the all-Jesuit board of trustees, and it is they whom he has said he will sue.
The mixed laymen-Jesuit board of directors came close to the 2/3 vote necessary to fire him.
Inside Higher Education says:
The dispute follows a critical audit by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the university’s grant agreements with NASA.
Inside Higher Education,8/5/09: The audit
by NASA’s inspector general has found that the U.S. space agency “inappropriately approved, obligated, and partially expended” more than $4-million in costs incurred at Wheeling Jesuit University, in West Virginia.
As a result of the audit, the agency has agreed to renegotiate the rates it pays Wheeling Jesuit to run a center for encouraging the transfer of technologies between NASA and private industry.
Meanwhile, nothing on the threatened suit by the ousted president, Rev. Julio Giulietti, S.J., which would be a bizarre development by any measure I’m aware of.

Smacks a little of what happened to the last president of Jesuit Loyola — my old alma mater. But then they brought in an Italian Jesuit, and my paisan has been doing a terrific job ever since. Like my Dad always said: Good to be Italian!
