"It was not appropriately reviewed nor went through proper channels,” the President’s statement read. The university president couldn't pass English 101 at a decent school.

I used to excel at English grammar and sentence construction. What am I missing here?

Parallelism on the verbs

It was not appropriately reviewed nor went through proper channels

It was not reviewed
It was not went

Mollypitcher1 pointed out that it was likely a typo - replace ‘went” with “sent” and it works, an the S is just below the W on the keyboard.
