Lobbing public allegations with the implication of ‘case proven’ against a person, even if they are mere senior staff, before there’s been due process and a reply from her and a finding of some sort seems inappropriate. I am also unclear why the singular responsibility for engaging in this falls to NCSG, how did we become the community’s watchdog? Industry members are all over Xavier already on all matters budgetary etc.</div><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;word-wrap:break-word"><br></div><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;word-wrap:break-word">There must be a better way to handle this issue than rushing into the street with torches and pitchforks.
