Good riddance to liberal trash.
GFR from an alumni dad. Quit the law school, too.
So, he hired a large number of conservative faculty?
Virginia primary day is not a total loss ping.

Gene Nichol is out
William and Mary president, faced with ouster, resigns

WILLIAMSBURG
Embattled College of William and Mary president Gene Nichol informed staff members this morning that he is resigning effective immediately. He said he came to this decision after being informed that the college would not renew his contract.
In an e-mail sent out to staff members, he wrote: “I was informed by the Rector on Sunday, after our Charter Day celebrations, that my contract will not be renewed in July. Appropriately, serving the College in the wake of such a decision is beyond my imagining. Accordingly, I have advised the Rector, and announce today, effective immediately, my resignation as president of the College of William & Mary. I return to the faculty of the school of law to resume teaching and writing.”
Nichol, who became president of the college on July 1, 2005, became the focus of a controversy that became a national talking point later that year over the placement of a historic cross in the campus’ Wren Chapel. Because the chapel is non-denominational, Nichol removed the cross from permanent display, but made it available for use in Christian services or for any group that requested it.
Nichol survived the firestorm of criticism that followed, but he apparently will not keep his job after acceding to students’ wishes for the campus to host a controversial sex workers’ art show earlier this year.
on of the people — young and older — who Glenn and I have come to know here.
Who is Glenn?
He’ll be missed.

“You can’t fire me - I quit!”
I feel a little better now. I woke up feeling more hopeless about this election than I ever have. I’m leaving work early to vote, then intend to stop by my church to pray for America.
I wasn’t aware that a private, church sponsored institution was required to meet the same constitutional limitations placed on the US government by its citizens.
That’s an amazing way for the press to report this - ‘he survived the firestorm’ but now he is fired. How is it that he survived the firestorm? Because it took a little longer to fire him?
Does anyone every read the garbage called ‘reporting’ any more?
Did he take his lovely daughters to the Sex Workers exhibit or whatever it was called? Or his wife? I would like to know the answer to that.
If it was something that other people’s kids should be exposed to, his certainly should as well.
what a jerk.
