Two UMKC Professors Speak Out About Resignations

by Associated Press , August 19, 2008

Categories:

Two investigations by the UMKC affirmative action office were inconclusive.

The university's lawyers have not allowed the professors to see details of the findings from those investigations and denied open records requests.

The professors said they are tired after nearly four years under investigation.

``This investigation was not easy on anyone,'' Haddock said. He said his family had been threatened and his students who continued to work with him in the lab were harassed after details of the alleged sexual harassment surfaced.

He said he agreed to leave UMKC ``because I thought I would have to go through another investigation. I didn't want to do that. I didn't have the financial resources to battle the university system.''
