PSU President Refuses to Pay Trustees’ Legal Fees in Their Suits Against the University

Penn State President Eric Barron on Tuesday evening snubbed a demand from seven alumni-elected board members that the university pay their legal fees for actions they have filed against the university to obtain information they say they need to carry out their duties. And in a sharply-worded email to the trustees, Barron blasted them for even asking. “Your request is made even more outrageous by your threat of yet another lawsuit against Penn State if we do not pay your costs of suing the university,” Barron wrote.
