"art professor and former department chair Joel Elgin, who was the subject of an investigation involving sexual harassment, is leaving the university.
Gow published a letter on the university's Facebook page stating that Elgin canceled a meeting he had with the chancellor Tuesday. Gow said it was Elgin's opportunity to respond to the investigation into reports of sexual harassment. Elgin's attorney informed Gow of the cancellation of the meeting.
Gow said in the letter that the investigative report was "compelling enough to move the process of dismissing a faculty member to its next phase.""
