UVM board head suggests private hearing for Parenti

Kenneth N Scott said the board will discuss reasons with Parenti but will not reconsider the decision. The Alumni Association president said the group will not take a stand on the matter. The trustees plan a weekend meeting on a merger with Vermont State Colleges, and the Parenti issue is not on the agenda.
