Gee, no money yet the administration created TWO vice-president positions. Where is the reasoning in all of that? If the CURRENT administration would do their jobs instead of looking to cut corners by NOT filling positions and using student workers to do the job of staff, maybe there wouldn't be a decrease in enrollment PLUS there would be money to help students. Let's see, give the football coach a RAISE? Really?! Let that president keep getting raises, but cry that enrollment is down? They deserve to lose students because they do NOTHING to keep them or encourage students to apply. Yet they keep employees who misappropriate funds from their union and still let them have a job, let alone work around money? What a sad state the university is in!

A Lawyer Should Assist in Improving the Legal System
ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS
EC 8-8 Lawyers often serve as legislators or as holders of other public offices. This is highly desirable, as lawyers are uniquely qualified to make significant contributions to the improvement of the legal system. A lawyer who is a public officer, whether full or part-time, should not engage in activities in which his personal or professional interests are or foreseeably may be in conflict with his official duties.
DISCIPLINARY RULES
DR 8-101. ACTION AS A PUBLIC OFFICIAL.
(A) A lawyer who holds public office shall not:
(1) Use his public position to obtain, or attempt to obtain, a special advantage in legislative matters for himself or for a client under circumstances where he knows or it is obvious that such action is not in the public interest.
(2) Use his public position to influence, or attempt to influence, a tribunal to act in favor of himself or of a client.
(3) Accept any thing of value from any person when the lawyer knows or it is obvious that the offer is for the purpose of influencing his action as a public official.
Here are the facts: Jay Macejko was behind subpoenaing the financial records from YSU – ACE Union. He did this with the help of his long time friend Robert Bush, who is now working in the Jobs and Family Services. State Highway Patrol Trooper Halligan and Lt. Cretella from YSU Police tried to strong arm the current treasurer for the financial records of the union. When the treasurer refused to comply, the state trooper handed the current treasurer the business card of Jay Macejko and his phone number hand written on the back. This happened May 4th of 2010. Her instructions were to call Jay, he wanted to talk to her privately. She refused so they went to the Grand Jury. The subpoena can be found on line. Jay Macejko’s wife represented Carol, the former treasurer, in Federal Bankruptcy court, where she claimed some of the embezzled money as a loan from the union. The Bankruptcy case was closed in May of 2010. The Grand Jury subpoena came out on June 8th. On June 11th the criminal forensic audit was released and it was clearly stated that Carol embezzled the money. In a number of emails, Carol admitted to taking the money and that if anyone had any questions they should contact Jay Macejko’s wife, her attorney, at her law office. The county has these records. I am sure a public records request can subpoena them. The two involved in the cover-up were Jay Macejko and Robert Bush, let’s not forget there were colleagues when they both worked for the city. FYI: the amount taken was $17,000.00 If you look at similar cases that have been in the news over the last 18 months, ALL were sentenced to jail, probation and had to make restitution. Alright Vindy, let’s do the story BEFORE the March primary.
Robert Bush, Jay’s good buddy, subpoenaed the records, was it he who was protecting them?

Once records were subpoenaed by Macejko AND he found out it involved his wife, he didn’t push for this case to go forward. So don’t blame gains, look a little further, Macejko didn’t want to explain how his wife was connected to this awful, blatant misappropriation of union funds, including how there were LIES in the bankruptcy case of the former treasurer, Carol. Jay's wife handled this case for the former treasurer and lies were filed in the FEDERAL BANKRUPTCY COURT!
Think there was pillow talk, so let's sweep this under the rug and no one will know the difference?

YSU enrollment || Figures show decline of 3.8%

It is ONE employee that still has a job there that misappropriated funds.
