Mike Tadych quoted on UNC Wainstein Records
WRAL reports that UNC-Chapel hill’s top attorney is leaving the job in the wake of an investigation into academic fraud at the university.
UNC has refused to disclosed the names of faculty and staff who were disciplined following the release of the academic fraud report. WRAL interviewed SMVT attorney Mike Tadych:
Raleigh attorney Mike Tadych, who often represents media organizations such as WRAL News in public records disputes, said he believes the university is violating the law by not revealing who was disciplined after the Wainstein report. Even with pending appeals, he said, state personnel law pulls back the curtain on terminations, suspensions and demotions.
“It’s our university. We should have the right to know what happened or didn’t happen,” Tadych said.
