General

"It is clear that under the administration of [Academy] Master [Sente] Kiteway, the Academy has lost its way," Earlywine said. "It is my hope that the reintroduction of transparency to the highest levels of the Academy will restore the public's trust in the Academy and in the City Council." --Nathan "Evil" Earlywine, shortly after rising to power following an impromptu election |
The goal of the oversight committee is essentially to report to the City Council, and make sure the Academy is acting in the best interest of those in the city who look to it for guidance and excellence.
It is anticipated that the committee will not take direct action itself, but will draft a proposal to present to the City Council; however, the council's resolution forming the committee did allow for the committee itself to request authority for unilateral executive action if it becomes necessary.
Members
- Academy Senior Fellow Astrid Lindstrom
- Academy Senior Fellow Inari Ekeba
- Cube Retrieval Team Member Garnet Reed
- Centrifuge CEO Halima Bourne
- Marmalejo College Dean Thomas Waxwick
- Cognivia Director of Research Dale Robarding
- PCAG Chairman Robert Zhi-Hui
- PCX Managing Director Giordana Moore
- Philanthropist Paulina Rudon-Birch
The initial longlist of nominations featured over seventy individuals and included education analysts, city planners, noteworthy artists and urban anthropologists. All of the appointees are themselves Academy graduates, and many have held fellowships. "The council was united in aiming for individuals who want to do the right thing by the Academy and by the city," said Council Member Ruth Sawyer. "In some ways the Academy embodies the heart of Perplex City. It transcends politics. It's important to respect that."
Progress
Reportedly, the committee and Sente Kiteway have been coming at odds. Unsurprisingly, Kiteway refuses to yield to some of the demands of the committee.
However, after Kiteway's key had been turned over to the Committee at the end of December 2006, certain notes came to light which implicated him in a PCAG investigation being conducted by the Substance Compliance Program. Though the two groups are not directly related, the information could not be suppressed, and one committee handed information over to the other.
