Rodney Monroe can keep his degree, according to a statement by Thomas Rosenthal (Rector of the VCU Board of Visitors) that was released today by the university. But the investigation did reveal some troubling details.
The investigation found no evidence that the student, former Richmond Police Chief Rodney Monroe, had any role in requesting an exception to this residency rule, or even was aware that the rule existed, or that an exception was granted. Chief Monroe has fully cooperated with the investigation and has voluntarily waived his right to confidentiality for the purpose of this statement. All options in the matter of this degree were considered and because the investigation found no evidence of academic misconduct by the student, both the Board and the administration agree that the degree should stand.
