Last month, the dean removed two division heads who had been critical of him. Medical students told the UW Board of Trustees they’re now worried about the future and reputation of their program.
A sad day it is when the University 's upper Administration and Trustees FAIL their duties to the students, the institution, and the State. WWAMI and WIND were already highly successful programs, both with national and international recognition, long before the Administration decided to gamble the stability and reputations of these programs by installing an overly ambitious, grossly inexperienced and inept Dean who's only public deliverables to date have been chaos, loss of faculty and staff, and now the faith of the students. These failures must not be allowed to continue. If the Trustees are only going to talk, and not act, it is time for both the Administration and Trustees to be removed from their positions and replaced by those actually willing to do the job - acting and serving the best interests of the University and the state by ensuring the success and confidence in the University by the students and faculty before they all leave.

No wonder enrollment is down University wide. Top heavy and low quality - the Governor needs to take action.
