Great article.

I read the whole article and all I have to say is...

“Hillsdale College”

Here's the distinguished Dean of Students:

Meredith Raimondo

Still employed. Although her "In the News" feed at the bottom of the page doesn't have any recent articles. I wonder why.

Excellent article, and thanks for posting. Radical administrators are apparently ignorant of some pretty basic principles of collegiate management. This:

Dean Raimondo personally handed out the libelous flyer at a rally outside the store, and addressed the crowd with a bullhorn. It was a mob not merely encouraged, but also coordinated, by the professional administrators of the college.

This is mind-numbingly stupid on several levels. Personal involvement by university officials makes it official policy, and the university officially liable. Getting recorded doing it removes the ability to spin the incident as Oberlin tried to do in court: "Oh, she was just trying to keep things peaceful and under control." No sale when the individual in question is caught red-handed whipping up a mob. Stonewalling the thing in court is a great way to get clobbered, and insulting the jury while it is still in session is/was disastrously stupid, and the fact that it was university counsel doing it raises the stupidity to stratospheric levels. They couldn't have done worse if they were deliberately trying to pooch the case, and they weren't.

Staying in office, defiant and unapologetic, and daring the court to come after them is beyond stupid, it's suicidal. If one single individual of this clutch of flat-lined geese remains in office it's because the Board has decided it's worth $33 million to have them there.

Democrats are lying corrupt scum.

Raimondo wasn’t the only administrator leading the charge...in my experience in the workplace, "administrators" are usually talentless, purposeless hangers-on who tend to make everyone's job more unpleasant and difficult - the GNP would probably rise by half a percentage point were 90% of the country's workers with "administrator" somewhere in their title were fired......

Excellent.
In my time at the U of Dayton, we went from 1 provost & 1 Liberal Arts dean to 3 provost and 5 liberal arts deans/”assistant deans.”

(30 years)

[kiryandil]

The ringleaders included an assistant dean, the vice president of communications for the college, the director of the college’s multicultural resource center, a special assistant for community relations, and also the president of the college.

Great tree decorations for one of my favorite holidays, Trumpmas...

I read that Commentary article, it was very good.
