Texas State fired official after the Tribune asked about his use of bone marrow registry funds

by Kate McGee, Texas Tribune


Texas State University fired the chair of its radiation therapy department after The Texas Tribune began asking questions about how he was using money for a campus bone marrow registry program, according to documents posted Monday by the Texas State University System.

The personnel documents show the termination of Reynaldo “Ronnie” Lozano’s employment was effective Dec. 16. The school’s board of regents will officially approve that decision at its meeting held Thursday and Friday.

The board is also scheduled to approve Megan Trad as the new permanent chair of the department.

The university system launched an investigation into Lozano on Nov. 4, one week after the Tribune submitted an open-records request for the financial records of a group he oversaw called Texas State’s Cancer Advocacy Movement for Colleges and Outreach, or CAMCO.
