Seemingly the president (a weird title, but okay) of that university brings in about US$750k / year - and is also noteworthy for being one of the highest paid public university presidents for some time[1] - netting US$6m for 2013 from Ohio, while stepping down from there after making some inappropriate comments.
My point is slightly tangential to the above - one might expect one of the most highly paid professionals in this role to be highly skilled, and to avoid this kind of oversight or blindsiding.

- dmix 3y agoAre we even sure this is a bad thing for the school? Sounds like they are streamlining their business, just with a lot of the usual useless administrative bloat and incompetence slowing it down.
- joe5150 3y agoThe administrative bloat and incompetence is why they're in the position to cut academic programs in the first place. You seem to think the tail is wagging the dog.
