    This is the right move. A lot more people should follow this and resign immediately. If not, they should be removed.https://twitter.com/thesnews/status/956342054937907201 …

        Totally agree. Like the Penn State case I expect we’ll see more high level resignations. So many people let these young girls down. For Nassar to have abused so many over such a long time says this thing runs deep. Some trustees will need to go too.

        It’s horrible to think how many girls spoke up and were not believed or told how big the consequences would be for everyone so they wouldn’t report him. Absolutely sickening

        This is a BS resignation letter. She takes no responsibility.

        The wording and the excuse-making within her statement screams that she doesn’t get it. Statements like “...as tragedies are politicized...” are unbelievably tone-deaf.

        She was retiring in December of 2016. This letter is tone deaf and assumes zero accountability. At least she is leaving.

        It was the right decision to resign but her statement was really quite pathetic. She didn't even attempt to apologize once. There absolutely needs to be an investigation into her and many others and definitely some charges brought against some of them right away.

        The Institution (MSU) recognized it did not conduct itself properly. Victims went to the police and they did nothing. Where r their resignations? Educational institutions demand accountability y not the law enforcement? BTW 19 yr Ingham CTY Prosecutor in jail for prostitution.

        “Therefore I am tendering my resignation” after a long self-lauding sounds like a sketchy non sequitur to me.
