You might want to let the smoke clear on this. There’s talk that tenure wasn’t going to be offered to her. For a professor who puts a couple of years into a university...that’s a huge let-down. The funny thing about this episode...why would a Harvard-player allow themselves to come to the Huntsville University?

One key thing is that most of the major companies in the local area laugh over this university...they tend to recruit loser instructors...so the students really aren’t of the quality that the companies seek. The companies end up at other major universities in the region to recruit new employees.

There’s more to this episode in the end....I think. But again...we go back to the discussion of letting people carry weapons on a campus to protect themselves...which is a sad topic to have to find logic in.

Why not? We have the HQs for NASAS and Army Aviation as well as the the Missile Dense Agency.

Combined with all the supporting research and development companies they say we have the highest percentage of engineers in the country and more PHDs per capita than any city in the country. Forbes Magzine classifies it against all other cities in the United states as follows:

* The country’s Best Place to Live to weather the economy
* First to the Moon and Beyond
* First in Engineers Per Capita
* Second for Cost of Doing Business
* Third for Cost Of Living
* Fourth Lowest Crime Rate
* Fifth in Culture & Leisure
* Sixth Educational Attainment.
* Sixth Best Place For Business And Careers

The real question is why we would let someone from Hardvard in Huntsville...?

Many of their earlier engineering professors were Germans who were part of Werner Von Braun's V2 rocket design team that came over from Peenemunde after WWII to help us go to the moon.

The near by technical library at the Redstone Arsenal is considered the greatest depository of rocket science information in the world.
