The Board of Trustees members Jay Paterno, Ted Brown, Alice Pope, Randy Houston, and Jeff Ballou published the op-ed "Abandoning Our Soul Should Not Be an Option." While I have no idea how the Board members' op-ed will impact our future, I do know that their letter is the first glimmer that the full board does not approve of every administrative move by President Bendapudi.
Members of the Commonwealth Campus community launched a letter of support for these members' call for campus closures to be last on the list of changes, not (as it currently is) the first option. Please consider signing on to this letter of support thanking the Board members for their op-ed and reinforcing the points they made about the impact and importance of our Commonwealth Campuses.
