The TRU Board of Governors announced today (Feb. 24, 2012) that they have delayed administering the oath of office to Mr. Adrian Miller and therefore he is not currently a member of the board.

“The top priority of TRU is the safety and security of students, faculty and staff and this decision was made after a thorough and complete review,” said Fiona Chan, Chair TRU Board of Governors.

“In Mr. Miller’s case, he has been found sleeping in campus public spaces, including the computer labs and other common areas, in contravention of TRU policies. That said, we know this is a difficult situation for all concerned and we understand that Mr. Miller is facing some challenging personal circumstances.”

It has been reported in the press that Mr. Miller had breached the terms of his parole and was taken into custody by the RCMP.

Mr. Miller will be advised of the decision as soon as possible.

As a result of privacy issues, TRU is not in a position to provide any additional details at this time.
