That's a lot of information.

My understanding is that alumni-nominated members of the Board of Trustees were pushing for higher quality undergraduate education. Ed Haldemann isn't interested in that and so he just engaged in "stacking the court" so that the troublesome alumni-nominated members of the Board of Trustees can more easily be outvoted.

I'm hoping alumni donations slow down as a result.

But the purpose of American Colleges circa 2007 is to learn how to party. Socialization. What draws the big bucks in America? A rock star or a rocket scientist. That's a clue.

Succeed by learning how to party, not how to do particle physics.
