No crap. If Weef would have done the deal months ago, then Currie should probably go ahead and wait a few more.
Two things:
1. Sounds like my What Would Wefald Do bracelet idea is a stinker
2. Weef is being kept around at an abnormally large salary for a job he doesn't really even do. That doesn't happen unless he still has some pull, or at least powerful ears with in ear shot. I have no doubt that Weef still has quite a few very powerful folks that are still loyal to him, both employed by the Uni and as donors. Too much was accomplished under his swindling ass for this to not be the case.
Hey casey, remember earlier when you thought tenure was something that everyone had to get after 5 years and that your professor would on principle reject an offer?
Yeah, don't bother giving your expert opinion on how Universities work.
A former Pres getting a quarter $M for a less than part time gig doesn't indicate that the man maintained some power?
I may not have taken the time to understand something that is completely useless to my life, in tenure, but I know how much of the business world works when it comes to exec's that are kept around at a high salary and given this type of jobs.
Tell me I am wrong.
Your shot at me over tenure is fine. I admittedly don't know crap about that. However, your attempt to make fun of me over this sort of thought indicates that you don't know crap about high-level business.
