U of L isn’t alone; two other universities with ties to Robert Felner are also under a federal microscope.
This is a story that no one wants to talk about on the record. But it could have major implications for U of L and the grant money it receives.
We have now learned that in addition to the government’s investigation a private foundation has also had problems with Felner and those problems date back to the late 1990’s.
When agents began hauling documents and computers out of the University of Louisville College of Education and Human Development, it caught many people by surprise.
Dr. Robert Felner, the former dean at the college who was supposed to leave that day to take a new job, is the man at the center of the investigation.
Felner oversaw more than 47-million dollars in grants while at U of L.
