Someone dropped the ball in farewell to Denny Crum

Apparently someone at the University of Louisville thought it was okay to to terminate employment contracts with Denny Crum and Darrell Griffith, two individuals who have engendered tons of goodwill and donations for the school over decades.

He or she chose to do it in the most impersonal way possible, informing Crum and Griffith by email that UofL was cutting them loose.

Letting them go. Firing them. By email.

No one bothering to meet with them personally or giving them a phone call.
