I have seen so many lies posted. The best one is the one Triumphant 1 did his best to combat. You know, the hair cutting party thing?

Prominent members of this board chose to believe the lie and even continue to spread it, even though T1 had totally proved it was false.

THis link did not work for me thad...

I thought I'd copy the email sent to us (the students of ORU) this morning:

Today, a letter was sent from Richard Roberts to the Board of Regents of Oral Roberts University tendering his resignation as President of Oral Roberts University effective today, November 23, 2007.

The Board of Regents will meet Monday and Tuesday, November 26 and 27, 2007 to determine action in the search process for a new president.

Executive Regent Billy Joe Daugherty will continue to assume administrative responsibilities of the Office of the President, working together with Chancellor Oral Roberts, until the Regents meeting.

In his letter of resignation to the Board, Richard Roberts said, “I love ORU with all my heart. I love the students, faculty, staff and administration and I want to see God’s best for all of them.”

Defense of what??? You are the one that seems to be on the defensive here. I have stated more than once that that ONE PARTICULAR ARTICLE was wrong and I was simply trying to keep it straight...you seen to be ignoring the several times since then that i have defended your posts and said that they were now factual....maybe you should stop holding grudges...you'll probably live longer if you do....

Fact is, the staff at ORU really doesn't want richard back...and the reasons are probably more numerous than can be reported...all in all ORU will be better and hopefully the board of regents and the new Pres can address the finacial woes that have plagued the school for the last 20 years and turn that around.

(((THIS FROM CNN )))

Oral Roberts University president quits amid lawsuitStory Highlights

"I love ORU with all my heart," Richard Roberts writes in his resignation letter

Three professors allege they were fired for revealing misspending

Roberts and wife deny spending university funds improperly

Roberts announced last month he was stepping aside temporarily as president

Next Article in U.S. »




(CNN) -- Richard Roberts, the embattled president of Oral Roberts University and the son of its namesake evangelist founder, stepped down Friday, according to the school's Board of Regents.


Richard Roberts and wife Lindsay appear on CNN's "Larry King Live" in October.

"I love ORU with all my heart. I love the students, faculty, staff and administration, and I want to see God's best for them," Roberts wrote in his resignation letter.

Roberts' decision was effective immediately and came as the school fought a wrongful termination lawsuit filed by three professors who accused him and his wife of misconduct.

John Swails, Tim Brooker and Paulita Brooker said they lost their jobs after reporting information indicating that Roberts and his family lavishly spent school money for personal expenses.

Roberts and his wife, Lindsay, have denied the allegations.

The suit also claimed Oral Roberts University gave a "convicted sexual deviant unrestricted access to students" and evidence in the case had been shredded -- charges the university has denied.

In addition, the suit alleged Lindsay Roberts repeatedly spent time with an "underage male" in various situations. She denied any improper behavior, insisting in a statement that she had "never, ever engaged in any sexual behavior with any man outside of my marriage."

The Board of Regents, which voted to hire an auditor to look into the claims, will meet early next week to discuss a search process for a new president, according to Friday's statement from Chairman George Pearsons.

Roberts announced last month he would step aside temporarily as president, saying he and his family had suffered "heavy damage."

The controversy has drawn international attention to the private Christian university in Tulsa, Oklahoma. E-mail to a friend

The ORU Board of Regents held a news conference tonight to announce that they had received $10 million in private donations today (including an $8 million donation from the owner of Hobby Lobby/Mardel stores)

They also announced that they had voted to separate ORU from the Oral Roberts Evangelistic Ministry...this would obviously allow Richard to remain with the ministry while not with the school...these two have always been together. In the beginning the Ministry arm underwrote the school but they say that in the last few years the school has assumed some ministry debt (such as the tv broadcasts)...

All in all it would appear that ORU has victory ahead...perhaps indicated by the ORU basketball team beating the University of Tulsa (a much higher rated school team) tonight in some bedlam action....
