Read *WVU* President E. Gordon Gee's entire Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E._Gordon_Gee, and you will not find one reference to the fact that he served on Massey Energy's Board of Directors for nine years (for which he https://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/stories/2009/05/18/daily18.html received $219,261 in fees and other awards tied to his seat on Massey’s board in 2008 https://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/stories/2009/05/18/daily18.html) from 2000 through 2009, and where he chaired Massey's http://ohiocitizen.org/campaigns/coal/gee.html Environmental, *Safety*, and Public Policy Committee. http://ohiocitizen.org/campaigns/coal/gee.html

Yes, the same Massey Energy that owned and operated Upper Big Branch Mine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_Big_Branch_Mine_disaster where 29 miners were killed in April 2010 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massey_Energy, and whose president, Don Blankenship https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Blankenship, was convicted in 2015 of conspiring to violate mine safety and health standards.

But, not to worry, the *WVU* sponsored HUB will be safe. Really. Really really really safe.
