venue caused a
severe decline in his research programs and plans were underway to
abolish the NERD entirely.
Frank Anuse had suffered a near fatal heart attack. Months later when
he returned to work, it was reported that he was a changed man. His
attitude toward the women in his sector improved and it was reported
that he regretted his role on the Trenchant panel.
Esther received the promised promotion and a raise. A year later, she
was retired--broken and unhappy.
Annette quit her position and moved out of the area with her roommate.
Jane, who had been tenured, left. The circumstances were never
divulged.

The Pope felt the heat and got out of the kitchen--very suddenly. An
interim president was appointed by the trustees.
Henry Tarbuck elected to stay when the new president came on board and
was demoted to an associate Vee. His wife successfully sued for
