Update: professor named in WSJ article speaks out

In this interview with Tom Monaghan conducted by the Wall Street Journal, one paragraph in particular stood out: "Faculty reported the [Ave Maria] college's administration to the Department of Education for fraud involving financial aid in 2002... And now one of those professors has been told that he must recant his testimony to department officials if he wants his contract renewed. (A university official acknowledged this was true, which may leave the school open to criminal conspiracy charges.)"

Well, that professor named in the WSJ article has now spoken out at the Fumare blog:

"I can at last say openly that I am the professor in question. And not just a professor: a departmant chairman and dean, as well. The reality of the situation was much worse than Ms. Riley summarized in her article."
