Penn State grads need to let the university know that they’d better be very careful about risking its reputation with Mann.

If they white wash something which has already been determined to be a fraud, then there’s going to be trouble for the Penn State brand.

just fyi, you have to understand grant writing in an academic setting, as opposed to writing a grant for a non-profit or as a business endeavor. Most of the money goes to the school, not the researcher. (it could be that PennState has a special agreement with Prof Mann) Usually there is a particular person or department withing a university who specializes in grant writing. When you have a person that that has the talent to write successful grants and can bring home the gravy, you dont want to let them ever leave.

One of the secrets is that you never really quite get the full answer to what you are researching, which means you always need another grant so that you can research more

The professor is already a state employee so they are not usually permitted to make an additional income from their grants. The people that actually do the bulk of the work/research are the grad students and they are paid via a work-study or small stipend.

and @Dimsdale/@bansharia, we havent been able to hit pledges since the 80′s whether we liked it or not lol

Manfred Mann’s Earth Band “Blinded by the light” makes sense now.

Academic welfare is not working. Lazy, good for nothing, lying elitist “professors” will do and write anything to stay on that welfare gravy train. I say end academic welfare as it exist today. Who knows what other “settled science” (salt intake?) is just flat out wrong.

Science should never be driven by political agendas, since it skews the results. Science is about the truth, not manipulation. Mann should be in trouble. His failure to release methodology was a clear indication that he was hiding something.

I can’t even begin to say how much I disdain anyone corrupting science and fact. This is worst than bank robbery or Wall Street scams because these “eco” bastards were out to willfully steer the economic coursesf whole nations for their green “beliefs.” Throw them in jail for fifty years. You’d expect no less from someone who’d swindle you out of a home.

Thank God for Joe Paterno, however.

You have nothing to be embarrassed about. At least Penn State is investigating this fraud. When most of us think of Penn State we think of Paqterno, not Mann. You’re good.
