I cannot imagine progressive and atheist and native of Albany, New York are desirable CV components if your student body is southern, conservative and overwhelmingly Christian. What were they thinking?

Plus all that New England Patriots crap..

Well this is quite an indictment of the hiring process at A&M.

How does this liberal toad make it on the interview slate much less as the final candidate?

Shame on the hiring manager and anyone connected to his selection.

---

The question we should be asking is, who was responsible for his hiring? Anyone care to find that out?


Interesting as his boss now is ultimately none other than the former Commandant of the Corps, Gen Ramirez.

Anyone seeing a pattern forming?

So they are missionaries, without the white shirts, black slacks, and bicycles?

The Title IX coordinator does not work for the VPSA. Your just pulling stuff out of you backside to try and make it fit your narrative.

On top of that, he doesn't even work for the University at all. According to the article, he works for the SYSTEM.

Get your facts straight.

Who hired M. Young?

Based on his public comments, this guy does not seem to have the temperament to be in the position he's in. I'd also say some of his moonlighting needs to be closely scrutinized, which may be what's happening here.

On a side note, it's funny to hear a guy like this decrying the "culture wars," when I highly doubt he was complaining when the left was implementing cultural Blitzkrieg and installing a Vichy govt. It's only when the right staged its invasion of Normandy and began pushing back that "culture wars" suddenly became a problem.

And morals.

Start with a suspension, move on to a firing, then to an elimination of the position.

Putting this one employee aside for a moment, I find it difficult to believe that an institution could drift so far to the left of the majority of its Alumni base and survive over the long term. Then again, Aggies may have changed a lot since I was around (and this could be possible since I'm my sixties and live so far away that I don't interact with many of my fellow Alumni on a daily basis)

A&M before sharp and since sharp is a totally different animal. Amazing how willing the board of regents has been in allowing him to destroy the university.

Soooooo many failures under his leadership.
Yet, it goes on and on.

Exactly how diverse would you expect the slate of candidates for that particular position to be? Hell, he may well have been the least loony one of the bunch.

Probably a good sign that the position is not needed

Let's be real, that's exactly the kinda person that works in the title 9 department. It's a joke of a department anyways.

Olshak is a TAM system guy.

Thank John Sharp, because John Sharp runs the system

It hasn't drifted 'so far to the left'. People never post about all of the things that continue to be much more conservative. They just post when something outside that happens and suddenly people define the entire university culture, administration etc by those few things. Its confirmation bias. If everything was hunky dory people wouldn't post about it.

I get the feeling some Ags just need to create the drama to have something to discuss with their 'online' anonymous friends.

There were liberal nuts in the 70's and 80's here but they were insignificant in numbers and the internet didn't exist. You can post 3 incidents now on the forum and suddenly it defines everything.

The caveat I'll add is that since the university has grown...and people from the coasts have moved to Texas, there have been folks hired with a more liberal taint (pause for laughter). Which as staff go, doesn't usually impact anything other than being the weird one in the office. Then you have this guy in the T9 office who is in a position to potentially cause an issue. And per policy, and as most universities do (I'm sure because lawyers have dictated it for legal reasons)...they get suspended with pay until an investigation is completed.

My issue with TAMU is the growth. I think its the V20 goals that have been the impetus of alot of these issues. We're too big.

I still wish we were mid 80's size, in the SWC and keeping out the carpetbaggers. Its much more corporate now and you have students graduating that don't seem to have the same love for A&M that existed in the past.
