[Vision2020] Nellis to be Named UI President

[bear at moscow.com]

I agree that his appointment is bad news especially with waiving the board policy on
outside 
payments for his salary! Now he is beholding to two "Masters" so to speak. The yearly 37k
from 
the foundation is more than a lot of people at the university even make, let alone
"supplement" 
a nearly 300k yearly salary, plus house, plus car, and based on the usual way of doing
business 
in Idaho God only knows what "secret"  deals were done behind the scenes. or does anyone 
really trust the board of Ed enough to think there isn't one, that of course being a
"personnel" 
discussion, they don't have to reveal. 
And how does the 3% to 5% pay cuts effect him?  Any guesses?

Since the board is more than willing to hide behind the  unique position of the
University, 
maybe the people of Idaho should recall those times of long ago when the University was 
established and deal with them in the same fashion - Somebody get a rope!

Another reason to vote NO! when the constitutional amendment comes up in November for the 
People to decide, not the appointed political hacks.

> I think that this is bad news. They had to offer him a lot of money to come and more
than
likely he will not stay long. He apparently had the support of the vandal Booster. I don't
like this any better than I do of White's Multicultural/ diversity nonsense. Even though
he may not be the best it would have been better to stick with Daley-Laursen. At least he
would stay and we would not have to go though this again in the near future.
