lisa mader's job title....
Permalink Closed

I really wish the media would question Lisa Mader's job title.  The title she often uses in her official capacity is something like University Spokesperson.  What she really is is the Spokesperson for the President of USM, which is fine, if only she would be listed by the media as such.  The problem is then that taxpayers would question why a president would need a spokesperson I suppose, thus the use of the moniker University Spokesperson.


A true University Spokesperson would have almost nothing to say about these events to the media.  Yet, she's out there all the time trumpeting Shelby's causes.


The lengthy blog by the Clemson person (on this board) speaks to this issue.

Mader is not going to bite the hand that feeds her (the hand that signed the paperwork for her merit raise).

Maybe a better job title would be "Stepford Spokesperson"?

Her official title (in the USM Director) is "Director of Marketing and Public Relations."  Maybe her spokesperson title is self-made?

It says Angie's title is "VP for Research."  Don't know exactly what you're referring to.

I have hard copy of a pdf file that lists her as an Associate professor in Economic Development.  She was originally listed that way on the Economic Development department website.  In recent weeks that was changed to list her as an adjunct and now she is just listed as VP. Part of the sanitization process - seemed to happen concurrent with the enrollment figures being changed a couple weeks ago.

State universities sometimes attach tenured faculty titles to upper-level administrative positions.  It's a bad practice, because someone who is hired from the outside to be a President or a Vice President doesn't expect to do any real faculty work, and you really want such upper administrators to leave the institution when they are fired or resign.  They could stick around and draw big bucks for low to nonexistent faculty performance.


So USM could have attached a tenured faculty title to Angie Dvorak's position.  But... if she is no longer being referred to as an Associate Professor of Economic Development on the official Web site, however, that means that she invented the position herself.


Bottom line: unless Dvorak was given the Associate Professor position at the time of hiring, her claiming it is a further instance of fraud.
