The last sentence is the appropriate action to take.
"The only acceptable consequence is that the boards immediately replace them with leaders who will restore moral clarity."And if not, the question becomes why not. And under new leadership, the board needs to clarify policies that need review and clarification. Too bad it comes to this.
Actually, a lot of clarification would occur during the search process.
I was really shocked by their responses. I mean, WTF?

Gay apologizes to Harvard students -
"What I should have had the presence of mind to do in that moment was return to my guiding truth, which is that calls for violence against our Jewish community — threats to our Jewish students — have no place at Harvard, and will never go unchallenged," added Gay. "Substantively, I failed to convey what is my truth."
What the hell is all of this “my truth”?! Where did this bullshit come from? Truth is objective, not subjective. Can we please stop this crap?

Among the grossest tribal memes I've personally witnessed in my life was the marginalization of anybody who says they like free speech. But that was a thing, a year or so ago.

She just resigned from UPenn's presidency, but keeps her tenured position at the law school.
UPenn will be looking for a new President. -
