Recent hire leaves UT System after outcry

Special adviser Rick O'Donnell is no longer employed by University of Texas System, effectively immediately. He said it was not his choice.
UT System spokesman Anthony de Bruyn said Tuesday would be the last for Rick O'Donnell, whose hire sparked an outcry from top officials, university alumni and lawmakers about his ties to the Texas Public Policy Foundation and some of his academic papers critical of university research.
