Ah. But I think it may be brilliant. If they don't respond, I win. If they do, it goes to the disparagement
clause and they will be the first to show that voluntary release of potentially disparaging facts is
acceptable. :)

I would take out the bolded language—it will only prompt them to respond, and I worry it is spiking the

Proposed Press statement:
Today the University closed their pending employment review process against me, and
contemporaneously I announced my intention to retire from my position as Professor in the School of
Earth and Space Exploration and the Physics Department at ASU, at the end of this academic year, May
16, 2019. I feel vindicated that the University has accepted my retirement request and agreed to settle
the employment process with no admission of wrongdoing. It is worth stressing that following the
University Investigation it remains true that none of my students, faculty colleagues, postdoctoral
research associates, or participants in the Origins events I led over the the past decade at ASU has issued
any complaints to the University regarding my behavior. The Dean of the College of Arts and
Sciences had recommended my dismissal on July 31 following the completion of investigations by
the Office of Equity and Inclusion. Subsequent to that in my appeal I presented new evidence and
information that undermined the credibility of the claims, and a number of the claimants. I do not
know if this factored into the University's decision to settle this matter with no admission of
wrongdoing but I am gratified by this result. I look forward to continuing my writing, research, and
public outreach activities elsewhere after retiring from ASU.
