many faculty upset now with Doty
Permalink Closed

I know many USM supporters have appreciated Dean Doty's efforts to oppose Thames.  But, today I heard several faculty express concern that he appears to be the catalyst behind the new Presidents University Council.  Let's keep an eye on who his college's representatives turn out to be.  It could be an interesting turn.

Pood sure sounded like he was taking credit for it on WDAM.

You're right about Pood.  But, Doty was there too praising the new "representative" body as a form of "communication."

I rather doubt it was the idea of any of the deans.  It has Shelby Thames written all over it.


But the fact that none of the deans will criticize the PUC in public tells you how short they are on courage.

PS. Besides, if Thames decides to chuck the PUC, then it will be a dean's idea, and the dean will take the fall for it.  Don't they realize that?

Oh, the new Council is all Pood.  Its his academic area - Communication and he believes that enhanced communication can solve any problem.  When he got to campus less than a year ago he was overheard to say that he needed to step into the growing crisis and foster communication between faculty and Administration.  What he fails to realize, apparently, is that the crisis is one of management, not communication.  Why he so willingly is helping Thames to look pro-active at this point I don't know except that he may be trying to curry favor with the Dome to save his job.

During the G&S crisis Pood did not communicate with anybody -- nary a peep.

Yeah, he was a REAL conduit of facilitation on March 5, when the crap hit the fan in the Liberal ARts Building.  /sarcasm
