SaveWCAL has received confirmation that the Rice County District Court-appointed Special Master has submitted the report of his investigation to the court.

SaveWCAL is now able to release the documentation submitted to the Special Master by the Minnesota Attorney General, St. Olaf College and SaveWCAL.

SaveWCAL has issued a Press Release (with Background / Timeline information).

DOCUMENTS SUBMITTED TO THE RICE COUNTY DISTRICT COURT SPECIAL MASTER INVESTIGATION

Downloadable PDFs of the documentation submitted to the Special Master by the Minnesota Attorney General, St. Olaf College and SaveWCAL are below, in order of submission:
  • December 10, 2007: St. Olaf College submits Letter #1
    • St. Olaf College Letter #1 [PDF, 2 pages]  Note: It is very likely that St. Olaf attorneys sent this letter to the Special Master before they had received the four memoranda SaveWCAL had put in the mail two days earlier.
  • December 12, 2007: St. Olaf College submits Letter #2
Total Submissions:
  • The Minnesota Attorney General, the chief legal officer of the state who is charged with upholding charitable trusts and the rights of donors, submitted a total of two (2) documents: One (1) Letter and one (1) Letter Memorandum
  • St. Olaf College submitted a total of seven (7) documents with no supporting Exhibits: Four (4) Letters -- two (2) of which were simply cover letters -- and three (3) Letter Memoranda
  • SaveWCAL submitted a total of eleven (11) documents and seven (7) Exhibits packets: Two (2) Letters, eight (8) Letter Memoranda -- seven (7) of which had attached Exhibits packets -- as well as a two-page letter from a very distinguished member of the St. Olaf community to the Special Master that is not being made public at this time.

Thanks, folks.

Anonymous
Is the Board of Regents governed by Christian principles, or by some other ideology which allows it to run rough shod over the clearly stated intention of the founders of the Kierkegaard Library as it appears to have done with WCAL donors? Would a secular university or college do this? Is the Board of Regents being challenged on this point? This attitude smacks of dictatorialism.
