Abstract: " As universities increasingly rely on external sources of

research funding, researchers worldwide are realizing that if their work is

financially supported by organizations with distinct political or financial

interests, they risk their careers if their results deviate from the interests

of their funding partners. This article presents a case that illustrates

how ugly this situation can become. Reviewing the literature on the

advantages and dangers of partnered research, the historical role of

universities,

funding trends, and university mission statements, the authors contend that

universities must engage in service learning and participatory action

research, but must ensure that faculty members engaging in academic activity

with partners—whether industry, hospitals, governments, nongovernmental

organizations, or communities—have their professional integrity protected. If

doubt exists about whether the partner can or will honor these principles or

the mission of universities for social good, universities should avoid

granting joint or affiliate appointments or accepting funds or favors of any

kind. Universities also need formal structures to ensure ethical application

of innovation and principled partnership engagement. In becoming servants

of government or corporatism, universities have become less vital to society

and are failing in their mission to promote social justice and

sustainability. Strong measures are needed to restore public trust "

The " UGLY " as it pertains to the University of California--their income

generated from Expert Witness Fees while aiding workers comp &

property/casualty insurers to deny financial responsibility for the sick and

injured--the

US Chamber of Commerce/UC link in marketing misinfo to the courts--and UC

profiting from denial of causation of mold induced illnesses--while being

Federally funded to advance the understanding of the exact same illnesses:

" Dear Ms. Mac and Ms. Griffiths (via Lissa Ly)

Please see forwarded. This is what the University of California is

assisting to promote by allowing the influential UC name to remain on the US

Chamber of Commerce's fraud in health marketing, " _A Scientific View of the

Health Effects of Mold " ._ (http://freepdfhosting.com/a8baea5e37.pdf)

The evidence is clear. The UC name should never have been on the

marketing publication that was penned and paid for to mislead the courts in the

first place. The evidence is clear. The UC employee who is the proximate

cause for the UC name being on the publication, Saxon, will take no

action to protect the proper usage of the valuable resource, the influential

UC name. He can't. It would be devastating to his own expert defense

witnessing enterprise.

As such, it seems clear that you, as the Legal Counsel and Chief of Staff

for the Regents of the University of California, have a responsibility to

the UC and the American public to do it for him. Please take efforts to

have the University of California name distanced from the document of

political and sectarian influence, " A Scientific View of the Health Effects of

Mold " , US Chamber of Commerce.

By being allowed to continue to carry the influential UC name, it is

lending false credibility to a fraud in health marketing that is harming the

public by aiding and abetting to _instill bias against the sick, injured and

their proponents in the courts,_ (mip://09660010/Action Group Asks

Publication | Katy's Exposure)

Please, I urge you, do not just ignore. The public is counting on you

protecting them by assuring the University of California name is not misused

to mislead the courts. If you would care to discuss this matter in person or

via telecommunication, my phone number is 760-746-8026.

Thank you,

Sharon Kramer "

" God Bless You, Sharon Kramer. As a victim who has lost my husband to

mold, been bankrupted, and subjected to thousands of days of torture at the

hands of those like Saxon, Kelman, and Veritox, I applaud your strength and

commitment to the truth. May God have pity on those who have wrecked so many

thousands of lives and ruined the scientific credibility of the scientific

community of the United States for the sake of the almighty dollar. Surely

someone will come along and sue all these crooks for their fraud. "
