Michigan State University Settles Lawsuit with Former Business Dean
February 14, 2025 - 13:26
Public records obtained from Michigan State University reveal that the settlement with former business school dean Sanjay Gupta involved more than just a new title. The agreement, which was aimed at resolving a lawsuit, included a lucrative salary that raises questions about the university's decision-making process.
Gupta, who was ousted from his position, received a significant financial package as part of the settlement. This move has sparked discussions among faculty and stakeholders regarding the appropriateness of such compensation in light of the circumstances surrounding his departure. Critics argue that the funds could have been better allocated to support current students and faculty, especially during a time of budget constraints.
The decision to provide Gupta with a high-paying position appears to be an effort to mend fences and avoid further legal complications. However, it has drawn scrutiny from various quarters, highlighting the ongoing challenges faced by the university in managing its leadership and financial resources effectively.
