Should Former COD President Robert Breuder Receive Unemployment Benefits?
Breuder has been awarded unemployment benefits.

The former College of DuPage President Robert Breuder has been awarded unemployment benefits but COD officials are fighting to try and have those benefits revoked, Daily Herald columnist Kerry Lester reports.
The college contested Breuder’s application for unemployment insurance but a judge last month ruled Breuder was entitled to the benefits, Lester wrote in a recent column for the Daily Herald. The College of DuPage fired Breuder last October. Breuder has not yet received any checks for unemployment, according to the Daily Herald.
An investigation into Breuder began in spring 2015. During the course of the investigation, “the college found evidence of misconduct and mismanagement, which Breuder, participated in, oversaw or failed to prevent,” according to the COD special board meeting agenda. A full list of the allegations of Breuder can be viewed below in the October 2015 board agenda.
