Basler no longer with MU Student Life

The associate dean of MU Student Life is no longer working at the University of Missouri.

On Monday, university officials confirmed Janna Basler was no longer employed at MU.

Basler attracted attention after video showed her with students in the November 2015 campus protests.

The move comes during new budget cuts and more firings at the university.

ABC 17 News reported in early July that the university’s Division of Student Affairs was going to make several changes to its organization in hopes of saving more than $1 million.

Soon after, Basler’s name was removed from the Student Life website.

On July 7, Basler did not confirm she had been let go, but sent a text to a reporter saying she was “trying to sort things out right now and provide a perspective that will be honest and insightful.”
