R E A D. Then use context clues so you know what the fuck you’re talking about. There are hundreds of Felner/UofL stories on this site. READ THEM.

No amends to the UofHell losership, but I do need to say “I’m sorry” to whales. They are not fish, but mammals (which, I guess, makes my apology even more necessary). I am not entirely convinced of that distinction, however. In addition, I do not want to kill any of them. To think of them in the same sense as our losership team is to slight the significance of whales. Mercy-killing might be another matter and require another perspective.
P.S. Would you believe I got a 99 in high-school biology? I had a very easy teacher (he also makes me think of the losership team at UofHell, though he was a lot nicer and less harmful).

Anyone noticed that, for a number of weeks, the Felner saga has become more a UofHell “leadership” story? Recall the old saying, “The fish always stinks from the head downwards.” In this ongoing chronicle of putrid odors, there seems to be a definite trend toward “losership” coverage and carnage. Each unwrapping of the rotten head of the fish seems like a tall tale, but it is reality; it becomes curiouser and smellier. When will it stop? When will “higher powers” finally cut off the head(s) of this moaning, grovelling whale? Please put it out of its misery for the good of us all.
P.S. Do the same for the UofL PR Office.

As Factsman notes, it is obvious that JR. SW, Blake, and the rest of the losership team grow less wise every day. They are like Casey Jones driving the train engine into the ditch. Soon there might be no live engine, and it will be extremely difficult to repair UofL due to its horribly inept “mechanics.” For the good of the institution (what’s left of it), the city, and the state, step down now and go gently into the night. Please, never plant a foot on Belknap land again. You have no dignity left. And no voice to be heard.

We are bring distracted from a sad reality with this uncovering of more wrongdoing that has already compromised the future of this once decent institution. That reality is that until we have a legal confrontation to force change, they will remain protected by their political connections and more crap will come from their sewer. What a legacy!
I use to write to these two even after being told it would not do any good, to alert them to the legal risks the University was under. The president chose to ignore this, remains arrogant and the biggest part of the problem until removed.
People were hurt and he is ultimately responsible. The apology was lame and should have been followed by a resignation if he had integrity. Now it is simply up to the legal system and he may get away with a golden parachute, maybe not.
The faculty letter to the Trustees is making its way in Frankfort and legal firms, punitive damages result when an administration is negligent. It is only a matter of time now before they connect the dots.
Like Wall street, this would not have occurred if the proper procedures that were in place had been truly respected or if competent leaders had been properly screened and retained for jobs with genuine, authentic faculty governance and input.
Instead he abd staff sustain a climate of hostility and try to silence us unlike in top universities.

But what would this leadership know about the latter?
Our Education college has been destroyed almost, faculty and students are demoralized with weak leadership. The rats remain on board making these holes bigger. Where is the accountability?
Let’s hope it is not too late to safeguard the other units. Budget directors should stick to their trade, …..top univ. presidents and provosts understand the true values of a university that are not just bricks and stones and athletics. Return the university to the Commonwealth! Step down.
Stop the “crap”. We know you read Page1ky.

The exception appears to be in the fact that the CEHD staff was actually doing all the work to assemble and create Mr. Bass’ portfolio, instead of informing him of what the portfolio should contain and providing advice and assistance as to how to complete it. Thus leaving the CEHD administration and faculty in a position to objectively “evaluate” the quality and content of the portfolio.

You know it sounds so simple – but yet — these simple procedures just seem to escape some decision makers at U of L.
