    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    But, it does have the largest undergrad enrollment in the country. With that said, does he get raise because of interview (or maybe a second bartender)?

    Something about this doesn’t pass the smell test. Either he’s seriously interested (doesn't have a chance) or his handler’s are trying to make him look ‘desirable’, kind of a tit-for-tat with DB and Ohio (huge difference though). Pretty dumb either way.

    The guy's a climber.

    He got contacted by a headhunter. He responded. He made the cut.

    Again, he absolutely fits the mold of a modern university president.

    Yes. Higher ed executive search is a big business.
