[QUOTE="The Bell Tolls for Thee, post: 132476878, member: 1812660"] The BOG is full of idiots as well. Academia is unfortunately full of incestuous morons who were indoctrinated to think like Gee and then primarily work in an academic setting to just pass on that thinking. Higher education graduates worth a damn usually leave academia and do something useful. Shame is that some of those worth a damn who would like return to academia in some fashion in the twilight of their careers are excluded by tenured jagoffs who never left the confines of "higher education" which is just a political circle jerk. So I'd expect nothing less from the BOG. The only way it changes is if enough people stop enrolling at WVU abd make it known that it is due to the incompetent leadership and enough elected officials in the WVU legislature have the balls to tie funding to certain criteria the president and BOG must meet. Personally I'd love to see the stipulation be that any BOG or president must have at least 10 years of non public or higher education work experience under their belt and that they not be more than 20 years removed from that experience before being appointed.
