UNR President Marc Johnson sat down with the Suns editorial board earlier this month. A wide-ranging discussion included talk about improving the states education system, the proposed medical school at UNLV, attaining the top Carnegie Foundation classification and the states north-south rivalry. Heres a condensed version of the discussion:

Whats the elevator pitch you would tell somebody who is considering going to UNR or giving to it?

The University of Nevada, Reno is a high-performing institution, a national merit sponsoring and access institution, really putting a balanced approach to undergraduate and graduate education, research and community engagement with the entire state.

How do you compare UNR? Are there peers?

The peers we choose are those institutions in our neighboring states that are balanced between an arts and science mission and a service mission, and theyre very high research and theyre U.S. News and World Report top-tier schools. So, we compare ourselves to University of Oregon, University of Utah, University of New Mexico and the University of Arizona. Oregon State and Washington State are good peers as well, and you always select a group of peers that generate a challenge. Those generate a challenge, and we expect to grow.

How do you think you match up to those?

DETROIT (WWJ/AP) - A lawsuit filed by a fired medical school professor says Wayne State University bilked more than $169 million in research grant money from the U.S. government.

The lawsuit, filed byChristian Kreipke in 2012 and investigated by the government since then, was unsealed last month in U.S. District Court in Detroit, The Detroit Free Press reported.

In the suit, Kreipke claims the school inflated the costs of research projects to get more in grant money from the government. He said, for example, the school spent$235,000for 300 lab rats that actually cost $12 to $80 apiece, and paid $150,000 to a researcher who didnt do any work ona project.

Kreipke said he complained about the suspected fraud to university officials and was shortly thereafter fired from his job. Kreipkes lawyer, Shereef Akeel, said his clients reputation is at stake.

Dr. Kreipkes exemplary career has been destroyed for standing up for the truth, Akeel told The Detroit Free Press. Unfortunately, what happened to the professor is what typically happens to whistle-blowers who get the courage to speak out.

Ifthe lawsuit is successful, the government could get up to 70 percent of any settlement or judgment.

Authorities at Wayne State said they learned of the lawsuit from media reports.

The author of the litigation an individual who was terminated from his employment for research-related misconduct has attempted to challenge his termination multiple times using several approaches. Without exception, every such attempt has failed decisively, the school said in a statement. Should Wayne State be served with this latest claim, we will defend aggressively, and we are confident that it will result in dismissal, as have all of his earlier attempts.
