Antioch University responds to AAUP report

In response to the report of the American Association of University Professors that criticized Antioch University for its of the handling of the closing of Antioch College, Antioch University Chancellor Toni Murdock said in part, "...it is the position of Antioch University that the report of the AAUP investigative committee (the “Report”) is biased and flawed and should be rejected. The Report is an inaccurate and incomplete narrative of the factual circumstances surrounding the decision to declare financial exigency at Antioch College; it is seemingly based entirely upon the statements of disaffected college faculty members and, apparently, a couple of former Antioch University board members whose allegiance to the college faculty generally and the AAUP specifically is well known."
