LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Who cares what they think after the scandal?

Monongalia County has some kind of delegates representing them. Who cares what their opinion of the Heather Bresch scandal is the day after [WVU President Mike] Garrison resigns? Their names, faces and insights have been splashed before our eyes now that they think the controversy is resolved.

Where were they during the WVU turmoil that began under their watch? They wouldn't even answer constituents inquiring into their stance on Garrison or how the law could improve the Board of Governors. Once again, former Delegate Cindy Frich was the only one with the courage to risk her political capital in order to do what she believed was the right thing in order to resolve the disgrace. Not only did Frich speak eloquently on the issue, she has also taken positive actions to promote a Board of Governors insulated from excessive political influence.
