Slade is accused of spending more than $500,000 of the school’s money on personal expenses, such as home renovations, drapes and bedding. DeGeurin has said Slade’s purchases were reasonable and necessary to court donors and improve the university’s image.
Vallier also testified that Slade spent university money during her tenure as president on at least two meals a day for herself and her staff at expensive restaurants, nights of drinking out and tickets for professional sports games.
She also said they traveled to Rome, Costa Rica and Maine.
Wonder if any of those purchases included a new Kenmore freezer?
