Title: New K-State President Named
Post by: rjd27 on February 11, 2009, 01:56:06 PM

Kansas State University will name Kirk Schulz as its new president today, giving the job to a Mississippi State University administrator with a love for research and college athletics.

Schulz is young. Not sure what type of experience you need to be a university president.  He's a science guy, instead of history, so that will be a change.  Wonder what recruiting ties he has in Mississippi (jk).

guys- i basically looked at all three of these guys early on and did some in depth evaluating. this is the only guy that wasn't a total doofus. just look at his picture and then do a google search on the two doofuses (twofusses?) we didn't hire and try to tell me i'm wrong.

ed. note- don't really do this. it would be a waste of your time.

Guarantee he has to shave between his eyebrows.  Decent looking though.

Well, he's saying the right things...

“Success of football and men’s and women’s basketball has brought good exposure to the university,” he said. “K-State’s national reputation has been enhanced because of athletics.”

No scholarship speech.  No theories on what MLK would've said about the game.  Good start.

I would like to hear his thoughts on the Marshall/Goldwater scholarship situation.
