This all falls on Dave Mawhinney. He’s a sexist power hungry joke. Acts like a big deal saying he sold a company to LinkedIn. LinkedIn acqui-hired one guy and Dave pretends he had something to do with it. Treats women and anyone beneath him like garbage behind their back and plays Bro with everyone else. He’s a cancer at cmu. They need to toss him out.
- dang 8y agoThis sort of drive-by personal attack isn't a good fit for this site, even in the best-case scenario where what you're posting is basically right. And there are a whole lot of worse-case scenarios in the internet smear genre.
- sagebird 8y agoIsn't this sort of culture poisoning to be expected when a flourishing university CS department invites the creation of a center for entrepreneurship? Have you seen this sort of arrangement work out before when you invite 'VC' personalities into academia? Maybe it is rare to find non-asshole VCs. It's incongruent to see these two figures share the same podium.

- greg2 8y agoI've worked with Dave while in student government & as a startup founder; I've come to know him as among the most caring, supportive, and kind people I've met at CMU.
