The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that it has given West Virginia University the required 30-day advance notice that it will sue the school "for failing to comply with the state's open records law."
"The newspaper alleges the university committed numerous violations in its response to requests for documents related to the school's decision last fall to retroactively award a master's of business administration degree to Mylan Inc. executive Heather Bresch, daughter of West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin," the article said.
The newspaper reports that its lawsuit alleges "the university has engaged in a constant and consistent practice of delay, evasion and concealment."

Ack. More great press for WVU.
This fiasco about this alleged undeserved degree is a big disappointment to me, and I'm sure many others in West Virginia. I'm an alumnus and proud of it, having grown up supporting WVU.
WVU does great for the state of West Virginia, but they need to come clean on this one.
