Public universities are constrained by how much they can pay employees while private ones aren't, so this isn't surprising.

Whorns don't have the NCAA to give SMU the death penalty this time.
Watch "Pony Excess" on Netflix. It's really good, especially if you were following the SWC during that time. They had most of their players on a payroll. DMN and another local Dallas newspaper were on it. They got caught twice and kept paying their players anyway. If any team deserved the DP it was them.
Yeah, that's why I referenced them. tu was getting upset that smu was beating them at their own game and went crying to the ncaa.

And the biggest factor...which city would one want to retire in? Dallas or Austin? I assume he will only do this for a few years then call it quits.

Ummm, neither?!!!

Dallas is not as bat**** left wing crazy as Austin, but we are probably arguing small degrees of separation there.

Good for him a big promotion
Going from ~54,000 students to ~12,000.
Most likely a fat raise.
Most likely a lot less headaches.

Looks like a no-brainer to me.


No question. He will be in the bosom of Highland Park. Not many bubbles like that floating around.

Is this guy conservative? I keep seeing SMU listed as a conservative college. If true, i hope he isn't a leftist crusader come to ruin the school.

I don't have first hand knowledge, but I always thought of SMU as RINO level conservative. Exhibit A is the W Presidential Livrary

Hopefully this helps to wreck any "alignment" there may be between the prez, chancellor, AD, and Sark.


Their alignment is Eltife and CDC. Until someone can find dirt on Eltife they'll be aligned
If you can't handle the stress, log off until August. If you can handle the stress, be supportive and donate to United. No more buildings and concrete. Gotta channel funds to the collective for now.

Is Rick Barnes still in consideration as his replacement?

That would still rank it ahead of about 97% of US colleges.

I thought the Gov all but outlawed all that?
passing laws and implementation are two different things.

There are a lot of other things at work. Including targeting non-productive majors, the future of tenure, etc that are going to generate huge feedback from faculty.

The Presidents are going to have rough sledding.


Granted there are lots of narcissists out there but major university Pres is a hard job and lots of candidates that would be good at it don't need the aggravation

True. I always thought it was ironic the Hoover Institution was at Stanford.

Fake news. Why would anyone want to leave the 40 acres?

It's wild to me that old Ags think A&M is this bastion of conservatism it was decades ago and reject anything that is not that. A&M now is very different and much more accepting of the things people pin on t.u.

I will be in an Aggies corner regardless of any personal differences, affiliations, and outlooks on life as long as they are respectful of others and their thoughts and feelings.


This. The vet school might be the most liberal place on campus now. Crazy times.
I missed the article about the vet school being liberal. Please give me more details or point me to the appropriate thread.

My brother in law is a vet and the things he says that are going on at the vet school are hard to fathom.

Definitely not the place it was when he went there.

Wouldn't surprise me if vet school went left. If you get the right leadership in there then you can steer the place towards the type of student who is PETA level when it comes animals. It's happened everywhere else. We aren't immune from it as has already been shown with A&M leadership in the past.

Remember, we are still owed $2,500.
