[Vision2020] Remove Staben now

[Debi Smith]

I am on that page! Finally, something both lefty and righty Moscowvites 
have in common...we dislike being lied to, abhor those who make disloyal 
promises, and "quitters" in general.

Staben needs to go. He has zero commitment here. On the other hand (I'm 
trying to be fair, even though I'm really annoyed and don't want to give 
him the benefit of the doubt), why did he want to get the heck out of 
Dodge so soon? Seems like it would be a very nice position.....what 
is/was the trouble that made him want to pack up? Better salary?( well, 
yeah). Issues on campus? Community issues? Very cold and snowy on the 
frozen tundra? Inquiring minds want to know....."Things change" is not 
an explanation.

My conclusion is this guy is another con artist. Not the first U of I 
president with that credential......Still paying for some past "oopsie"s 
in that regard.

When asked about the retention rates of those kids, Staben said, in effect, that isn't a fair question since they're not UI students.
