Despicable them.

I am an alumni of a college in the same state where they had a lot of recent tornadoes.  I also worked there for a long time.  As an alumni, I get letters asking for money quite frequently.  They are generally routine, and I just toss them.  But recently, I got a letter from them that was out of the ordinary.  Even though the campus was not close to any tornado or tornado damage, they somehow tried to tap into sympathy for tornado victims to encourage donations to the school.  What crap.  That's low, even for them.    Enrollment there is down and faculty are being laid off.  Well deserved.  

Isn't his U-Haul a pretty orange color?

If you will refer to my February 12 post, you will see that I remarked that our Chancellor for higher education was extraordinarily unpopular.  He has done a lot in the last few months to go further down that road, including an editorial in the local paper which essentially insulted everyone in the state.  Then, he seemed to be clueless as to why no one liked him. 

Today we got great news.  He has been "released" from his contract!  How much did that cost?  Don't know.  Whatever it was, it was worth it.  If they take up a collection, I'll contribute.  Good-bye, good luck, good riddance.
