Quick Glance: City of Omaha Settles Former Employee's Harassment Claim for $285,000

A former employee, Shakilah Grixby, reported last year to the city that she was sexually harassed by Gerald Kuhn.

She filed complaints with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and Nebraska Equal Employment Opportunity Commission because she believed the city did not properly investigate her harassment reports and retaliated against her for speaking up.

According to the settlement agreement, Grixby claimed she "suffered physical and emotional harm as a result of being harassed and then retaliated for reporting the harassment during the course of her employment with the city".

After Grixby reported she had been harassed, Mayor Jean Stothert "immediately placed Kuhn on administrative leave and asked the Human Resources Department to conduct an investigation, pursuant to policy".

Quick Glance: Debate Looms for Nebraska's 'Sports and Spaces Act' in Legislative Session

Despite time constraints, the introducer of a controversial bill in Nebraska's legislative session believes there is still room for debate on the measure.

Dubbed the 'Sports and Spaces Act,' the bill would limit access to school bathrooms and locker rooms based on biological sex and impose similar restrictions on most school sports teams.

Lawmakers have until Friday to advance bills through the first of three debate rounds, with the Speaker urging senators to consider time constraints and avoid debates on bills unlikely to progress.

It's uncertain if the bill has the necessary 33 votes to overcome a likely filibuster, but the introducer is confident, with no proposed amendments on the measure so far.

Quick Glance: Nebraska Confirms Hiring of Washington A.D. Troy Dannen

Nebraska is finalizing a deal for its new athletic director one week after losing Trev Alberts to Texas A&M, as reported by ESPN.

Washington A.D. Troy Dannen, who has been in Seattle for only six months, is lined up to be NU's next leader, according to ESPN's Pete Thamel. Dannen previously served as athletic director at Tulane (2015-2023) and Northern Iowa (2008-2015).

Dannen has chaired the NCAA football competition committee for the last four years and currently sits on the executive committee of the NCAA Football Oversight Committee.

Stay tuned for more updates on this evolving situation.

Quick Glance: Nebraska Athletic Director Leaving for Texas A&M

Nebraska Athletic Director Trev Alberts is leaving the school for the same job at Texas A&M, confirmed by a source to the World-Herald late Wednesday afternoon.

Alberts was identified as a top target for the same job at Texas A&M in various media reports, and after hours of speculation, a source confirmed on Wednesday that he accepted the offer about a week after A&M's initial interest.

If A&M lands Alberts, they will need to pay an additional $4.12 million to buy out his contract at Nebraska, which was extended last year for eight years.

A former Husker football player and academic All-American, Alberts has made significant changes in Nebraska's athletic department in less than three years, including firing a football coach, securing a $301 million multimedia rights deal, and planning a $450 million overhaul of Memorial Stadium.
