The Daily Collegian News Adviser John Harvey was re-instated Wednesday as the paper's adviser effective immediately, the paper's Board of Directors said in a statement released Wednesday evening.

After a six-hour meeting Tuesday night, the three-member executive committee determined in a unanimous decision to reverse General Manager Gerry Hamilton's May 20 dismissal of Harvey for insubordination.

The Board determined the firing "was not supported by enough documented evidence to establish a claim of insubordination."

Board President Michael Hofherr said the situation will continue to be monitored very closely.

"One of the tasks with the Board is to mend the relationship between the two," he said.
