I've had experience with these jerks. They are ULTRA politically correct, culled from the ranks of super-important minorities, well spoken, VERY nice, well dressed, well educated and with many letters after their names.
B.S. = BULL S***
M.S. = MORE S***
Ph.D. = PILE HIGHER AND DEEPER.

They will cause the collapse of ANY school or university given five years of their stupidity. In reality they know not what they are doing.

My husband used to call them "GREAT DO-NOTHING MYSTIFIERS."

.

.

Side note: One of these kind of bosses I had at one school had a beautiful dark green Jaguar. I had an old red '69 VW bug. When we had to meet I deliberately parked next to her. What a sad joke she was.

"$570,340 a year"

Easy government money is a huge part of the corruption of higher education.

My guess is that an expensive lawyer will soon be hired by this person. His lawyer will get him a very nice retirement package.
A condo in the Bahamas will probably be included.

Who are the idiots that would pay half a mil a year for this position. A lot of people should be locked up for this.

A better question would be....

Who are the idiots that would SEND THEIR KIDS TO A SCHOOL LIKE THIS.

Idiots like the Obamas.

He’ll make an accusation of racism and it will be business as usual.

Sounds like he took his title all too literally.

“Tell me again why tuition is so high? “

Ever look at the cost of apartments in Ann Arbor, Michigan? They cost over $1,000 per month.

I know, I know, but perhaps someone else can explain this crap.

Seems he has a similar look to Walter McCarty, who got the boot for apparently similar offenses yesterday: https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2020/01/22/walter-mccarty-fired-by-evansville-over-sexual-misconduct-allegations/

Not reading the article. My question is why is someone at a college or university making that kind of income. Its beyond rediculous. We are all left wondering why student loan debt is out of control.
Even as this is my alma mater this is utterly insane.

re: expensive apartments in Ann Arbor.

When govt. makes easy money available, everything inflates.

Can you guess, Term....how many similar positions would be normal for a major U like Michigan ?

I’ll bet he’s not the only one. Its COMPLETELY insane.

That is a most ridiculous salary for a provost.

And this is considered a “non-profit” college. Rather narrow definition of the term profit.
