Anyone got the dirt on this news source?
I assume you are referring to the November 16, 2009 story "WNU principals should face criminal charges" available here.
Difficult to prove criminal intent in such situations, particularly where, as here, you have the school making what looks like a good faith run at regional accreditation. On the other hand, as we have seen in other cases, if you can stack the deck (e.g., trial judge on the board of trustees of, say, U of Wyoming) then anything goes.
