Students, faculty and members of the public will now have a chance to speak out about the bonus after the board increased tuition by 4.2% this year and embarked on expensive projects.
Just weeks after raising tuition by an average of 4.2%, the Wayne State University Board of Governors held a secret meeting to give President M. Roy Wilson a $25,000 bonus – an apparent violation of the Michigan Constitution and Open Meetings Act.
The violation may put the new business school at risk because of the university’s handling of the secretive agreement.
