Putting the CU in Chutzpah

So let's see:

You're the president of a major university. The school has been rocked by a sexual assault scandal, the stupid remarks of your football coach and his subsequent suspension, and an uncredentialed fraud who happens to be one of your department heads who mocks 9/11 victims.

When you finally resign, you note the following:

It appears to me it is in the University’s best interest that I remove the issue of my future from the debate so that nothing inhibits CU’s ability to successfully create the bright future it so deserves.

Oh, that's rich.

I wonder why so many people ridicule academia.

Update:

University of Colorado Economics Professor Barry Poulson demonstrates there's at least one academic at the school who understands what honor and integrity mean. They ought to make him president of the school, if he could stand the stench of the corruption he'd be cleaning out.
