The Ave Maria Implosion Continues...
As the Dean sues his own college. I got a thrill out of seeing that the Dean is my former professor, Fr. Neil J. Roy, at the forefront of the 'Rebel Alliance' vs. Monaghan: The Rev. Neil J. Roy, a member of the board himself, filed suit Sept. 8 in Washtenaw County Circuit Court, claiming that Monaghan and the board are unfairly transferring the school's assets to Ave Maria University, which operates from temporary quarters in Naples, Fla.
"As a Catholic educational institution, Ave Maria College fulfills a critical need for a spiritually based institution of higher education in Michigan," Roy said. "Our goal is to negotiate an agreement to keep Ave Maria in Michigan in its current form or a new form."
Roy is a good man. Those who know him can have no doubt as to his integrity. But it breaks my heart to see such a good institution go down in flames. ( From Open Book.)
