Another Case, Another Loss: Meeks Settles for $1.3 Million

The Tribune is reporting the settlement in the Meeks case as $1.3 million, $847,000 to Meeks, $453,000 to his attorneys. Another loss for Wayne Watson, Patrick Cage, and the rest of the Cook building clowns. Special thanks to the Board of Trustees, especially Michael Curtin, Anthony Young, and James Joyce for voting to retain Watson in 2013. None of this would be possible without their vile incompetence and political dishonesty. They consistently ignored the interests of the university to reward Watson and his various cronies for destroying the school.

"1. He/she must be a scholar of national note, with significant peer review publications and books in his or her field. There must be no doubt as to his/her standing in the community of scholars. This would also include a history of the candidate’s participation in the appropriate professional organizations.

2. He/she must have served with distinction as the administrative head of a major unit within an institution of higher learning or at the important position of Provost and/or Dean. Of course, prior service at the presidential level is preferred.

3. He/she must have a documented history of raising significant monies from the private and public sectors. At most major and research one universities it is not unusual to expect the president to come with a plan to raise in excess of half a billion dollars or more in the first few years.

4. The prospective president must have a consensus buy-in from the faculty, students, administration and staff, therefore, arriving with a unity mandate to lead by joining a University community that has bought into his or her vision for the future."
