The controversial (to say the least) UNCG vice chancellor moves on, several months after —as the N&R puts it —“orchestrating the October firings and arrests of two UNCG photographers and their boss, whom he accused of using university equipment for freelance work.”

But have we heard the last of Paul Mason? While two of the former employees ares still negotiating with the university, Lyda Carpen and her attorney Seth Cohen are taking the issue to an open-court administrative hearing in High Point in March.

The goal of the hearing is not only to get Carpen’s job back but to get Mason on the stand and have him testify to the type of work environment he was creating — which many former employees claim was hostile, harassing and intimidating.
