Penn State faculty and staff leaders join in disapproval of statements

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- Penn State’s Academic Leadership Council, Faculty Senate Council and University Staff Advisory Council released a statement today (April 7), joining Board of Trustees leadership in addressing recent comments by Trustee Al Lord:

"Penn State’s Academic Leadership Council, Faculty Senate Council and University Staff Advisory Council, take exception to recent statements by Albert Lord, a Penn State Board of Trustee member, that are insensitive to victims of child abuse, as well as inconsistent with Penn State’s values and ongoing commitment to prevent child sexual abuse through training, research and education. We consider his decision to withdraw himself from consideration for re-election to be appropriate."
