re: Gravy pissed - new EBR School Board Super selected - not who you thought would win - Golfer on 6/20/20 at 11:09 am [quote]This line of thinking is why public schools are so bad.
Why should someone spending time as a teacher have any bearing on their ability to be an effective administrator? It’s a completely different set of job requirements.
And the state qualifications to be a teacher are ridiculous - es... Posted on O-T Lounge Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |

re: Why did LSU cave on the library renaming so quickly? - Golfer on 6/19/20 at 8:02 pm [quote]However, this one is a no brainer.[/quote]
What’s interesting is that the vocal minority wants to “have a conversation” and “welcome people who might have been -ist”. All while “addressing systemic racism”. Which is fine.

It launched ~15 months ago and is still going on :lol:. Alleva was gone 14 months ago and Alexander was a public candidate for new jobs about 10 months ago. ... Posted on O-T Lounge Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |

The move to layoff the staff was because of the failure to raise the funds for a $1.5B capital campaign. The Foundation CEO was replaced as well[/quote]
