I could make it "my belief that the =ean's" in the first paragraph, but I think that dilutes =t too much. Of course I believe that.. Instead I have moderated =t by comparing it to the claims against me, and saying I will elaborate =elow. I have tempered the other statements in this =aragraph. At the outset, let me emphasize in the strongest terms that the Dean'= recommendation is grossly inappropriate given the claims against me, for = variety of reasons that I will elucidate here. As I will describe, the Dean based his decision on an uncritical evaluation =f a deeply flawed, highly biased, and factually incomplete investigation. =ot enough effort was made to check the validity of certain claims against =e when parties with direct knowledge were available, the credibility of =ndividuals who were shown to have provided false information was not questioned, =nd other individuals at ASU who are familiar in depth with my experiences both =nside and outside ASU were not contacted. Moreover, my behavior, and its implications for others, was strongly distorted and/or misrepresented. I =lso changed this by adding ASU.. since it is the ASU claims that =idn't arise till after.. To the extent that this may have caused any concerns among some individuals =t ASU—concerns that I stress were never relayed to me or to the University during my time at ASU until after a tabloid =rticle appeared about me Lawrence M.
