Contract barring ASU president from living with unmarried romantic partner may be illegal

[alp227]

MONTGOMERY, Alabama -- Alabama State University's new president told Inside Higher Ed this week she did not have a lawyer when she signed an employment contract that bars her from living with an unmarried romantic partner.

But she also said she does not mind the provision.

"I do live alone, so it was not problematic for me," she told Inside Higher Ed.

As reported this week by AL.com, Boyd -- an ASU alum and 33-year veteran of Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory -- will take charge of ASU next month.

Her employment contract, obtained this week by AL.com, requires her to live in the president's home on campus during her tenure. It also bars her from cohabiting that university-owned residence with any romantic partner who is not her husband.

1. Ahh Rednecks

gotta be in the face and life of everyone they interact with yet still claiming to be all for individual rights and freedom.

I'm so glad I left Alabama, there were some really really good people there but the overall bullshit from fundies and other assorted assholes was overwhelming at times.

2. She signs a contract with a University but doesn't

have a lawyer review it before she signs it?

3. I would make it a point to have sex in the middle of the front lawn instead of the residence.

But I'm kind of strange.
