Dr. Bottoms Retirement
"ETA, I looked at stories in The DePauw and the lawsuit was originally to start in September 2008. There's also a story about the national president of DZ resigning in September (sorry if this was reported earlier) and President Bottoms retiring/resigning, depending on your POV."
Just an FYI--Dr. Bottoms did not resign. His retirement has been in the plans for a few years now, as he has served the college for 21 years (at the end of the 2007-2008 school year). Also, he will stay as Chancellor of the University and oversee the Prindle Ethics Institute.
Dr. Bottoms handled the DZ mess with a great deal of compassion and insight regarding the best interests of the current DZ members and alumni and DePauw students and alumni (all of whom had their lives turned around by the actions of DZ nationals).
