I'm not really sure what the difference between interim and permanent is. Can someone explain?

They should add the word "Acting" instead since our governor and now the president of the university like to play semantics games and assume people are stupid.

A source….. Here we go with this shite. How about wait until it’s all said and done before “sourcing” anything again?

Positive steps, we didn't have another press conference to announce this change, just an unnamed source and a website bio change

In an interview with The Louisiana Illuminator on Wednesday Rousse said that his comments about removing Ausberry’s interim tag may have been premature. “I can’t make a very good decision after being on the job for eight hours,” Rousse said. “I don’t know what permanent means versus removing the interim.”
I have only been on the job for 8 hours, you can not expect me to make good decisions.

It really is.

What other college would do this?

I could see putting him as an interim while they do the search for a new ad. that would make sense. This is just louisiana.
