Mark Schlissel Career

The beginning of his career as president of the University of Michigan involved controversy surrounding the athletics department and a federal investigation into the Brendan Gibbons sexual assault case. In 2018, John Cheney-Lippold, an associate professor of American culture, declined to write a letter of recommendation for a student applying to study abroad in Israel, citing human rights concerns and his support for the BDS movement.

In response, Cheney-Lippold was put on probation, had his pay cut, and had his subsequent vacation days canceled. The university and Mark Schlissel were criticized for disciplining him, citing a breach of free speech, the right to boycott, and professorial independence.

Mark Schlissel has come into conflict with climate activists over his support for continuing University investment in oil and gas industries. In 2018, in response to continued refusal to meet with climate activists, students organized a sit-in at Mark Schlissel’s office in the evening following the Global Climate Strike to demand a 1-hour meeting with Schlissel.

In response, the University of Michigan Police were called in by an unknown administrative source to disperse the protestors. Following repeated threats, several students were arrested and were subsequently charged with trespassing on university property. There has been a significant backlash to this decision, and there are continued calls for charges to be dropped against the protesters, citing the non-violent nature of the protest, the withholding of evidence by university lawyers, and the fact that the University of Michigan had never previously pursued trespassing charges against students.

Firing

On December 8, 2021, via an anonymous complaint, the Board of Regents of the University of Michigan was informed that Schlissel may have been involved in an inappropriate relationship with a University employee. After an investigation, they learned that Schlissel, over a period of years, used his University email account to communicate with that subordinate in a manner deemed “inconsistent with the dignity and reputation of the University.”

On January 15, 2022, Schlissel was fired as President of the University of Michigan by the University’s Board of Regents.
