THE KANSAS CITIAN has confirmed the identities of the two male journal editors who complained about Obama but, for privacy concerns, is not publishing their names.
White House spokesman Jay Carney told THE KANSAS CITIAN the president indicated to White House staff that he was vaguely familiar with the charges and that the universitys general counsel had resolved the matter.
Obama was president of the Harvard Law Review from late-1988 to mid-1989. THE KANSAS CITIAN learned of the allegations against him, and over the course of several weeks, has put together accounts of what happened by talking to a lengthy roster of former university officials, current and past students and others familiar with the workings of the journal at the time Obama was there.
In one case, THE KANSAS CITIAN has seen documentation describing the allegations and showing that the university formally resolved the matter. Both men received separation packages that were in the five-figure range.

Paid to leave Harvard law review and to keep their mouths shut. Honestly I think 5 figures isn’t even enough considering the prestige and earnings potential that comes from Harvard law review. I hadn’t heard of the Kansas Citian, is it legit?
Thank you! Not raining here yet-just grey and more cloudy gathering.
My cub applied for and got a slot on a team to do independent research for 3 months to fast-track her masters, but she asked no questions about the particulars of the assignment. She was thrilled-until she had to pack up a few things and go to a really remote cabin in a part of west Texas with one other female in the program-remote as getting dropped off somewhere in BF Egypt, as in no TV, no restaurants, minimal creature comforts-just her laptop, research supplies, cell phone and provisions fetched from the nearest tourist village.
I’ve gotten numerous whiny texts ever since she got there on Saturday, as has my son-in-law. I’d happily trade places with her for that kind of solitude and communication with the natural world, but I like that sort of thing. My cub’s idea of roughing it, however is when room service is late.
They are studying the honey bee decline-it sounds so interesting, even if she is less than thrilled just now. Perhaps she has learned that if something sounds too good to be true...
Well, he certainly wasn’t busy writing any articles or doing any law-editor type things.
Hannity had some author on the radio and he sounded interesting except when he said Obama was a “chick magnet” in college.
Well congrats to her but the assignment sounds right up your alley!
No, we got a lost dog that was turned into my shelter. He looks to be less than 3 years old, light sable and lots of white. He was found running loose on the Natchez Trace. All the pieces kind of fell into place for us. My friends say it was meant to be. No one claimed him and he is at home with us now. We cat tested him there but he is still trying to get at our cat so we will need to do some more work. I yelled at him when he lunged at the kitty. The cat was here first. I think he can take care of himself, but I want new dog to know that is unacceptable.
It’s the mites causing the problem, isn’t it? It does sound fascinating. I didn’t know you only needed 4 hives to have an apiary.
I’ll open a classroom once I get into the ofc, going in a little late today. Should be there in about 45 min.
Max is not amused.
Let me guess. His real name is Maximus?
ok mr legally blonde!
he hadn’t thought of that, i am sure, but now you are giving him a way to attempt to make the pursepup more masculine.
Max, King of the Wild Things.
The Wild Rumpus has begun!
