Penn State Alumni Elected Trustees Call for Special Meeting

December 10, 2014-- The nine alumni-elected Trustees have called for a Special
Meeting of the Board of Trustees. In a letter sent Monday to Chairman Keith Masser,
the nine alumni-elected Trustees seek to re-engage the other trustees in the case
against the NCAA, particularly those Trustees who joined the Board after decisions
made by November 2011 and July 2012 Trustees.
"With the trial set to begin in early January, we believe the board must delay no
longer to join the Commonwealth, Senator Corman and Treasurer McCord to void
the NCAA Consent Decree," said former President Pro-Tempe of the PA Senate and
2014 alumni-elected Trustee Robert C. Jubelirer.
Added Barbara L. Doran, elected in 2013, "Like Dr. Barron, I find the NCAA's selfproclaimed "bluff" of Penn State into accepting football sanctions in 2012 to be
deeply disturbing. It is time to act."
The Trustees have called for the public session to begin at 4:00 pm. at the Penn
Stater Conference Center.
