[QUOTE="michaelwalkerbr, post: 129609214, member: 1601483"] No, Steve. Major decisions take a super majority of 80%, right? If three Texas schools vote against it there is no 80%. If two schools outside of the governor's influence are added three no votes would still cover it, right? (I'm correcting my math from previous post) But if four schools are added, UT needs one of them to be under the governor's thumb to maintain over 20% for a veto. Right now there is UT, TTU and TCU. You have to question TCU, but without the governor they would not be in. 80% of 14 is 11 as a whole number. If you add UH, Texas basically can control up to four votes, three without TCU. Math is not my forte' since my head injury in 2014. Straighten me out here. It was my impression Texas needed another school receiving substantial state money to stop any super majority with even 12 schools. Now I think it would take 11 or more outside their influence for a super majority at 14 members. I admit when I'm wrong and I believe I may be. Be nice. [/QUOTE]
