### Incident 16 (Row 17): Lie to ABET and Retaliatory Resignation of Advisor

* **AAUP Redbook Review (C):** As shown in this sworn testimony, the department lied to an accreditation body (ABET) regarding the student’s status (claiming PhD instead of MS). Academic dishonesty by the institution, followed by the advisor quitting in retaliation for the student seeking outside oversight, violates all standards of academic integrity and student rights.

* **ADA Review (D):** The advisor quitting specifically because the disabled student contacted a licensing authority is a direct violation of the ADA’s anti-retaliation provision (42 U.S.C. § 12203).

* **Title IX / VII Review (E):** Retaliation for engaging in protected activity (reporting systemic academic neglect/abuse to an oversight body) is strictly prohibited. The institution’s deceit to ABET proves intentional, malicious coordination.

* **Veteran / VEVRAA Review (F):** Retaliating against a veteran for exercising their legal and administrative rights to report institutional failures violates VEVRAA’s anti-retaliation clauses.
