It is with great disappointment that we are sending this letter.

Las Vegas business leaders are coming to the defense of UNLV President Len Jessup amid some disapproval within the state university system over his practices and performance.

The future stability of UNLV is in question after the announcement that the university’s president might be on his way out the door.

One of two regents pushing most vigorously for UNLV President Len Jessup’s ouster brushed off the notion that the board should be concerned about fundraising at the university despite a mounting revolt by some of the school’s largest backers.

A third donor to UNLV has suggested they will pull their contribution to the university if Len Jessup is removed from his position as president.

The title of John Hudak’s January report examining the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs’ response to a congressional inquiry on medical marijuana pulls no punches.

On average, female doctors made $105,000 less than male doctors last year, and the gender pay gap actually increased.

Add $8 million to the funding that UNLV stands to lose if Len Jessup is pushed out as the university’s president.

UNLV President Len Jessup’s decision to sign an agreement conditioning a $14 million donation to the medical school on him keeping his job through 2022 “raises serious questions about Dr. Jessup’s ethics” and “the optics are appalling,” a lawyer for the Nevada System of Higher Education wrote in a legal opinion obtained by The Nevada Independent.
