    RaceToTheTop reacted to HoosierHoopster in President Whitten - 2024 Faculty No Vote   
    There are linked articles in the posts above.
    As mentioned I don't want to go into what I know on a message board, but here is some additional published info from the H-T reflecting lack of transparency, lack of appropriate (including required) inclusion of faculty in certain decision-making and governance policies:
    On Mar. 27, more than 200 faculty members signed a petition calling for a special meeting to hold a vote of no confidence against Docherty, Shrivastav and Whitten. The petition centered around the administration “encroaching on both academic freedom and shared governance.”
    Key examples included Docherty’s suspension of professor Abdulkader Sinno without a hearing from the Faculty Misconduct Review Committee, the administration’s cancellation of Palestinian artist Samia Halaby’s exhibit at the Eskenazi Museum of Art, the administration’s handling of controversial Senate Bill 202 (which restructured the tenure process at Indiana public universities), their rescinded attempt to sever the Kinsey Institute into a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and their refusal to publicly defend faculty member Dr. Caitlin Bernard against Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita after he questioned her medical credentials for performing an abortion for an Ohio rape victim.
    Sinno said the administration’s flippancy toward shared governance policies demonstrates the current administration is unfit to lead a major research university.
    “I’ve had disagreements with administrations in the past, but we all, them and I, respected policies,” Sinno said. “This administration has no respect for policies or the values of Indiana University.”

    I posted about him earlier today, but here is a short video of a dunk by Tobui Lawal.  Kid is an absolute freak athlete and has a high motor.  Might be raw but you can’t teach some of things he is capable of doing.  Not necessarily an IU fit but….damn

    So, if Malone's visit has ended, does that mean we're discussing Post Malone?

    Sorry -- couldn't help myself ...

    @Home Jersey I don't really think it's IU that needs selling on Essegian but rather Essegian needing selling on IU.  From his standpoint, is a small defined role better than what he could find elsewhere?  He can start at mid majors and compete for a starting job (might not win one) at a lower P5.  He will have other places he can get more minutes.  More $?  Maybe not.

    Wisky has $2.5 million in basketball NIL according to Wisconsin boards....that's probably mid P5 territory.  Probably would expect to lose some to the portal but still be able to get some talent in.  But outside of Johny Davis, has he been sending players to the NBA?  Even Davis has not shown much success yet, particularly for a guy drafted tenth.
