No Confidence in Anyone - Ry Rivard, Inside Higher Ed
Here's how divided faculty members and administrators are at Saint Joseph's University, in Pennsylvania. Professors are so distrustful of the budget and enrollment projections and everyone who prepared them that when faculty member tabled a no confidence vote in their president recently, it wasn't because they backed the president, but feared that if he were weakened, another senior official in whom they've voted no confidence would come to power. Such is the acrimony at the Philadelphia private college. Starting last fall, the faculty have approved a series of statements criticizing the most powerful leaders at the university.
