Universities’ want nothing to do w/ honesty and truth. They are liberals and democrat….They hate and fear people like me…while they demand tolerance of every fetish their minions and degenerate minds can conjure…

What most universities ‘want’, is nothing to do with insanity.

Although, I agree with you in that universities do require uniform thought for the most part. They churn out compliant worker bee masses to feed the corporate machine.

Compliant worker bees don’t question for the most part, they obey, and that’s what most universities are good training grounds for.

Didn’t FITS (who loved Hodges just as much) get caught using his influence, with the morally-compromised Sanford, to score a bad ride from a slick, favor-seeking car dealer???…

And wasn’t FITS father a college professor, riding the gov’t gravy train for decades???…
The hypocrisy is the problem I have with it. SC will NEVER change, if the Good Ol’ Boys, and Girls, are the arbiters of morality…

In other words: When you’re Filthy from Corruption, I’ll be D*@m#d if I’m going to let FITS pontificate to me…

Meanwhile a Vice Chancellor lives in Wisconsin and receives a travel allowance of 10 grand a year so she can visit once a month or so. How do you get a $200,000+ package as a state employee and live half way across the country?

A vice chancellor can live in Wisconsin but a backward fundamentalist university in SPARTANBURG SC can’t support a robust and vital program in Women’s and Gender Studies!!!! Administration just put the university back 50 years as retribution for exposing current LGBTQ and feminist issues to Jesus freaks and other bible sheltered proddy dogs, clamheads and carolas. Evidently Jesus loves football and other athletics.

“We have looked across Academic Affairs for ways to reduce administrative costs, and we are implementing many changes,” said Moore. “Not only is this decision not punitive or a response to external pressure, it is part of an effort to be consistent and systematic across Academic Affairs in how we administer and support various programs.”

What was left this out:

“All reductions are within Academic Affairs therefore all the vital, non-academic functions of the University will remain constant and unaffected. These functions include administrative fluff, perks and benefits such as trips to China, China, China, China and China only to give the students reduced tuition to come to Upstate, multiple country club and other memberships, the necessity of increasing university administration, and the protection of our sacred cow: athletics.”

Not sure why you’re bashing the professor for pointing out that the quality of students received from K12 system is, on average, downright sad. None of the things he says is untrue, or even that far off base or inappropriate. Spend some time in an entry level college environment before undercutting his opinion on the matter.

The problem is not what he said, it’s what he’s done, which makes it hard to care much about what he said, even if it’s accurate.

So Routh was “was leveraging taxpayer time, facilities and equipment to promote his enterprises?” I guess his problem was not holding elective office while doing so?
