I’ve bolded those names who are either current or former members of the BJU Board of Trustees. UPDATE: I eliminated this indication after receiving all the names who signed.
The men present who voted unanimously were either all of those or some of those. We don’t know. We can presume that the Officers were all likely present: Kevin Schaal, Gordan Dickson, Taigen Joos, Bud Steadman, and Michael Privett.
Who abstained? Bob III didn’t. Mike Harding as a present BJU Board member? Stephen Jones as a very absent member of the Royal family? Mark Minnick as a current employee?
The only name on there that I can guarantee did not abstain was Don Johnson, but he’s an old friend of mine. ;)
What do you think?
UPDATE, May 15, 2023:
The Positives have added an unredacted signatory list. WutBJU will mark all those signatories on the above list in bold italics.

• North Korea’s latest missile test raised a difficult question for the U.S. and China (and Europe).
Is it time to accept that North Korea will never give up its nuclear arms, and try to reach a deal to stop its arsenal from growing further?
Part of our Op-Ed team that recently visited North Korea put together this video. And our Interpreter column presents seven critical truths about the threat it poses.

• The reckoning over sexual harassment in the workplace has toppled another leading U.S. media personality in Matt Lauer, who was a fixture in American living rooms for 20 years.
He was accused in a complaint of inappropriate sexual contact with a subordinate. Two more women had come forward by the end of the day.
Readers discussed how the recent spate of such revelations could change gender relations. And our critics waded in.

Back Story

Thirty-five years ago today, Michael Jackson released “Thriller,” which topped charts around the world and became the best-selling album globally.
The King of Pop’s sixth studio album, “Thriller” infused a mix of pop, disco, funk and rock. It won a record-breaking eight Grammy Awards in 1984, including Album of the Year. (Santana tied the record in 2000.)
Statues of Jackson have been erected in countries from Australia and China to Italy and Brazil.
Produced by the legendary arranger and composer Quincy Jones, “Thriller” also broke racial barriers.

The video for “Billie Jean” was one of the few from black artists to receive heavy airtime on MTV and is widely credited with helping to popularize the music network, which debuted in 1981.
After the success of “Billie Jean,” MTV readily accepted the video for “Thriller,” the album’s title track. The zombie-filled video, by the Hollywood director John Landis, cost $1 million to produce.
In a review, The Times called the album a “wonderful pop record.”
“Most important of all,” our reviewer wrote, “it is another signpost on the road to Michael Jackson’s own artistic fulfillment.”
(Read more about the album and coverage of Jackson in The Times here.)
