Google "Kenneth Frazier" 

CURRENTLY....

2. Click on the SMSS Kenneth Frazier: Anti-Child link

Sign the PSU Student Petition To Remove Frazier


KEEP THE PRESSURE ON...


Mr. Frazier refuses to face the fact that PA's Child Protection system failed Sandusky's victims and is in need of reform.  He remains an obstacle to PA's flagship University in being a leader in protecting children.


Thank you for your support.

  1. Please help current Penn State students... We're meeting with VP for Student Affairs Damon Sims on Friday, March 29th, about those racist remarks. AND we're collecting signatures at the following petition.

    3. Ray,

      Someone is interfering with the petition. I cannot send a message from the gmail account, despite the fact I am NOWHERE near the 500 message limit. Signatures have slowed considerably (39 in the last 14 hours).

    4. Is someone with tech skills helping Anne with this? At least she'll have even more to discuss this Fri with the VP for Student Affairs. How can subversion of the student voice go unchallenged by those charged with leading and governing a top American university? ...Why that could be considered un-American!

  3. Birds of a feather! I googled "Kenneth Frazier" this afternoon...Slate had the story below at the 12th rank. It's an interesting commentary by Snigdha Prakash from Nov 2011. She questions the selection of Frazier to head the PSU search for answers.
    After reading this, I emailed her about the work you folks and Sollers team have done to date. I've encouraged her to read your reports and consider writing about it!

    Her previous book was on Merck/Vioxx/Frazier.

    1. My algorith is different, probably because I +1'd the articles. I'll take your word for it. The good news here is the wiki article contains the info about the racially insensitive remark.

    2. per a post on FOS Merck kept deleting the reference to the racist remark from Kenny's wiki article. The IP address was traced back to Merck HQ and has now been blocked from editting.
