An investigation by KU into the allegations against Dennis Dailey and his sex ed class has ended with the finding of no wrongdoing by Dailey.

Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor David Shulenburger submitted a report on his findings to Chancellor Robert Hemenway. In the report, Shulenburger recounts his investigation of nine allegations made by Sen. Susan Wagle, R-Wichita, who based her allegations on comments from her intern, a KU student.

“I have concluded that the preponderance of evidence does not support Sen. Wagle’s allegations,” Shulenburger said in his report. “It is my finding that the complaint does not have merit.”

The provost reviewed class documents, Dailey’s qualifications, Dailey’s response to the allegations, student and alumni testimonials, and Dailey’s teaching evaluations for the past five years. Shulenburger also conducted an interview with Wagle’s student intern and reviewed the textbook and audiovisual materials used in the class.

In a response to the report, Wagle said she isn’t suprised by the university’s finding, and that she wants an independant, outside investigation of the class.

Six weeks ago, Wagle accused Dailey of showing pornographic videos, making crude comments and using foul language in his class on human sexuality.

Wagle, a leader among conservative legislators, introduced an amendment aimed at cutting funding to the KU School of Social Welfare, which oversees Dailey’s class. The amendment passed the Senate and House but was later vetoed by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius.
