Yeah, I read something about that when some angry e-mails were flying around, but I never could figure out who they were talking about.  I didn't remember the e-mail saying it was someone from the coast.

dr. know, I'm looking for the post mentioned above.  BTW, what do you know about the sabotage of a third year review that has been mentioned.

I'm also looking for the older thread myself.  

A guy on the coast didn't have a 3rd year review.  He submitted his materials, but nothing happened with it.  Don't know why.  It was that time of transition....new dean....new chair...releasing of the former local boss on the coast.  It wasn't that he got a negative 3rd year review; it was that he didn't get any review at all.  So he was told to submit his stuff again, in the 4th year, but it was the exact same stuff that he submitted before.  Nothing added to it.

Is that what everyone is talking about?

Sounds about right.

Ok then, yet again, dr. know has no idea what you guys are talking about.  Can you at least tell me a department?  Well, earlier you said there were two, at least.  So can you tell me what department(s)?

It probably won't do much good unless you have good information about the coast campus.

I found it.  It took a while, but here it is.  Looks like it was in MGT/MKT.

Wow, this plan for MIS looks nothing like the plan he has put together for faculty in MGT/MKT.  The key features of the MGT/MKT plan are:

Fourth Year Reviews for Assistant Professors --- Sinecures for Significant Others ---  Course Presentation Payola --- Job Placement Services for Aspiring Deans --- 'No Fault' Promotion-to-Professor Contracts for Associate Professors --- Unrivaled Chairperson Salaries --- Sabbaticals for Service --- Professorate-to-Administration Training Programs --- Online Course Creation for New Hires --- In-House Publication Play-for-Pay Plan --- The Instructor Sweatshop Initiative

This plan is nice.  You should get one too.

dr., what's the story with the "angry e-mails" flying around?  Did you mean "angry posts"?

---

There were some angry e-mails flying around the CoB about a promotion application that was denied.  Lots of things were said in those e-mails.  Lots of things from the past were alluded to, and it seems like a fourth year review was one of them.

dr. know, what's going on in the college of business?  Are you part of COB?

There are some problems (as if you couldn't tell), but it'll rebound.  I really don't know much about the current animosity, which is why I ask SJ and the other posters for specifics.  I can tell you that I can't truthfully place all of the problems on any one man's doorstep.  

That last comment may get me flamed to dust, so the less I say about my identity the better.   

Sports Center is on.

Without saying more about yourself, how would you parcel out the problems in the COB?

95% the SFT regime, 5% everyone else.   

It's funny.  When SFT was coming in, I remember hearing the former CoB dean say something like, "We're finally getting a president that understands and appreciates the role of the business college."

Wow, did he ever back the wrong horse.

What did you think about the secret degree plan?

So, you generally think Doty has been a good Dean, unlike some others who post here?
