Newspaper Board’s Decision Seen as Retaliation

The North Wind Board of Directors may have violated the board’s bylaws when they ousted Asst. Prof. Cheryl Reed as adviser to the student newspaper Friday, April 3, according to board members who are questioning the legality of Friday’s 5-3 vote.

The North Wind bylaws state: “The Journalistic Advisor shall be selected annually by the English faculty and department head from faculty members, with their choice subject to the approval of the North Wind Board of Directors and editorial staff. ”
