Here (below) is what I've sent them; I think most people who haven't read The Chronicle (i.e., most people) have no idea what is going on, but when they here about it they are shocked and outraged. 

=====================

There is a huge mess taking place at the University of Southern Mississippi right now that may be worth your attention.  It has been written up (in its early stages) on the front page of The Chronicle of Higher Education and has been the topic of much superficial coverage in the state press, but recent discoveries suggest far more extensive problems than the one covered in The Chronicle.  These problems may involve nepotism, cronyism, and abuse of power at a major state institution.  A link to the Chronicle article (a good place to start), plus links to practically all other press coverage, can be found at www.geocities.com/fireshelby

Something smells here, and it seems worth looking into.
