IU BOT
- Thread starter twenty02
- Start date
i will tell you IU isn't regarded anywhere close to what it was when i was looking at schools. the perception over the last thirty years for everything save music and kelley has really slipped in my experience. kids here only go for kelley. otherwise iu is viewed along the lines of sec schools with better weather
Now, not only does he appoint 5 of the 9, but he can choose to replace any of the alumni elected for any reason. Why bother having alumni elections?
To make it appear that the governor doesn’t control the board - when in actuality, he would.
That said, I can’t honestly say that the Board as it’s been has exemplified itself. But this doesn’t seem like the solution to that.
Is he going to pick IU’s next basketball or football coach, too? (I am hopeful this won’t be for a significant number of years, but, nevertheless. . . . . )
Effectively a hostile takeover by a political party. Wonder what King Braun has in store for the university. Probably guaranteed to pick based on political affiliation.
Braun's wife is an IU grad. Still that article does not make it sound good.
k?
Either taking away her vote with the rest of us or making her vote the only one that counts (depending on who wears the pants).
pretty sure purdue was already under the thumb of the governor. I recall Mitch Daniels placing people on Purdue's BOT and then that BOT giving him a job as President when he was done being governor.
Faculty are employees. They shouldn’t even be advisory.
I’m inquiring about that handle. Is this our stoll?
Nope, just the right amount of nuance and precision.
AICPA would approve and endorse.
This is a complete and utter bullshit piece of legislation.
I say this as an alumnus that has consistently voted for BOT candidates.

Yep, I had a short lived protest, cancelled my subscription and requested my account be deleted.
During the process I met Sammy through an email thread. He along with another of the owners are good guys. They’re doing the best job in years on the Premium Basketball Board. They’ve also added a Women’s Board which was long overdue.
I lost 10 months of my previous subscription with my deletion choice but WTH, I paid up for another full year. I added a little to my name in honor of The Greatest Moderator and Coolerite of all time.
So I am happily back doing my job on all the boards.
🐐 doing 🐐 💩
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
More importantly. Have we gotten the fck out of that accounting practice?!!! Are we free at last?
Not free. I worked 90/100 hour weeks again. I worked for my young partner who now owns the Practice. All 3,600 plus clients have my cell number and think I should be involved. Hopefully after this second tax season of me working only remotely the situation will be fixed this summer.
If only I had a-hole skills I could fix this quickly. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I literally have no opinion on the matter, but did you actually know the people who were running?
I didn't. I voted for the person I felt would be the least offensive, just based on their resume.
I doubt this changes anything, frankly, but I understand why some would be upset.
In a state where there’s already a brain drain I’m not sure this policy will be positive. If I was a neighboring state, most likely Illinois I’d make a sweetheart deal to encourage Indiana residents to attend their public schools. Who knows, maybe this will be a whole lot of nothing.
I know Desantis did this in Florida and I’m honestly not sure what the residual affects are, or do we know yet?

Florida universities are $5,500 - $6,300 and thriving. FSU the dummy party school for UF rejects is now ranked much higher than IU.
WTF.
Before grants and scholarships, ****ing little Indiana Wesleyan is 55K plus. Even with them, it's not close to those numbers.
Looks like it’s not going to take long for you to start trying to goad him into another one…
If/when that day comes, the state house will pass legislation to roll back the power of the governor.
Given the shady gerrymeandering that has been allowed (even liberal bloomington doesn't get a voice), dems will likely never get the state house. Don't worry. we will see a flurry of laws passed to prevent the pendulum from swinging the other way.
In other words, Pam pissed off a lot of people with her heavy handedness and now wants to be protected. Can't say I'm shocked.
