OWH vs. UNO

The Omaha World-Herald continued its personal vendetta against the administration at UNO in today's paper. Recently, the Herald started by discussing how they athletics department has been losing money since the hockey team moved to the Qwest Center a few years ago. Then they found that money had been "secretly" moved from account to account to make up for the loses. The University Regents said that, while they don't always need to know money is being transferred, it should've been mentioned to them instead of them having to hear about it in the paper. Oh, but the mud slinging didn't stop there. The next article was a he said, she said discussion about who should've known about all of this and who oversaw the account. After a golf membership being taken away and a few resignations, now the Herald has its sights set on Chancellor Nancy Belk and an apparent misrepresentation of how many people went to dinner with some UNO faculty while in Nashville. The original receipt showed the average meal to be $158, but when Belk turned in a copy of the receipts to the OWH, she stated that there was more people there than had originally been reported. When the OWH questioned the other faculty, they don't remember anyone else being there. This is good for UNO, in a way, because now maybe some will be cleaned up.
