University
bumps
airline
executive as
speaker
by Susan C. Thomson
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
In what a university spokesman described
as "a mutual decision," St. Louis University
announced Wednesday that American Airlines
CEO Donald Carty would not be the
university's commencement speaker after all.
Nor will the university be awarding Carty the
honorary doctor of laws degree he was sched
uled to receive.
Beyond that, spokesman Jeff Fowler stuck
with the university's official statement: "Fa
ther Lawrence Biondi (SLU's president) and
Don Carty had a conversation today and in
light of recent developments decided that Mr.
Carty will not participate in SLU's commence-
ment event."
Those developments included revelations
that the airline had arranged bonuses of double
their base salaries that would have been paid
to Carty and six other top executives for stay
ing in their jobs through January 2005.
In another move, the airline had added ex
tra pension benefits for 45 executives. The air
line did not disclose the perks until after three
groups of union employees had voted on new
contracts, cutting their own pay. The airline
said it needed the concessions from the em
ployees in order to avoid having to file for
bankruptcy.
The airline has since rescinded the bonuses,
and Carty has apologized for withholding the
details of the executive perks.
A spokesman for the airline said that Carty
agreed to withdraw as speaker because he
needed to focus attention on the airline's fis
cal concerns. "With the financial situation still
unresolved at American, Mr. Carty is trimming
some near-term commitments outside of the
company," spokesman Tim Wagner said. "He
was looking forward to speaking at St. Louis
University." Fowler said St. Louis University
was now "actively looking" for a replacement
speaker for commencement, scheduled for
Ma 17.
