Chancellor Under Review by Nevada Regents Again

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Chancellor Dan Klaich will face a make-or-break moment when Nevada higher education leaders discuss allegations he misled lawmakers trying to restructure how schools are funded.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports (http://bit.ly/1TxgqIS) that the University of Nevada Board of Regents is holding a special meeting Thursday where they could decide to immediately terminate Klaich.

Klaich is under fire after emails from 2011 and 2012 showed the Nevada System of Higher Education allegedly fabricated a memo from a paid consultant to submit to a legislative interim committee.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal obtained the emails through a public records request.

Klaich has argued the emails were taken out of context.

Regents cleared Klaich last September of allegations he whitewashed a report from the same paid consultant.
