I understand he's been arrested. I just want to know if the school district has him listed as being on administrative leave. After all, they can't make any judgements.

Oh, he was just studying the new health curriculum for next year.
Talk about being over paid, damn.
Moravian College, affiliated with the Moravian Church, is also in Bethlehem, Pa. It is the 6th oldest college in the country and has about 1500 students. There is an associated seminary. They have a new president who was formerly president of (Lutheran) St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota. It already was not clear that this was an upward career move for him. He's a good guy and this news article about the less-than-illustrious alumnus in the same town must be pretty depressing.
