I'm shocked. Mary Sue Coleman is the interim.

Buzzfeed has some of the memes. Students and Faculty are celebrating tonight. There was a plan for him to leave quietly and it looks like he screwed that up.

No one with any level of intelligence is celebrating.

Re: U-M President Schlissel FIRED, effective immediately
We are talking about the guy who got a vote of no confidence from faculty? The guy who announced his departure prematurely?
I still don't understand what value the guy brought to the university. His covid response has been absolutely negligent. I can't speak to other parts of the job but when you look at taking care of students he wasn't very good.
I hear there's a condo available in the building where Lou Anna Simon is up here. Maybe that pair will enjoy each other's company in their shamed retirement.

Re: U-M President Schlissel FIRED, effective immediately
Schlissel is a snob who likes to hide behind lawyers and probably should've been fired following the Provost Philbert scandal. I also agree his COVID response, at least initially, was lacking (ask those who work in the residence halls).
While another black eye for the university is not welcome, I think TC Talks is correct that numerous students and faculty are relieved that Schlissel is out. The fact the Board of Regents made the proper decision *should* be celebrated.
Judging from the context of the emails, the flirtation and relationship seem consensual, but nonetheless, he should not be having that type of relationship with a subordinate. On moral grounds, I also have a major issue with the fact he appears to be cheating on his wife.

Not to be an advocate or excuse the behavior, but why did someone supposedly so smart, do something so stupid as to use his University email account to correspond? Did yahoo run out of email addresses? Couldn't he have installed a private server in his bathroom? Couldn't he have wiped his hard drive?

I thought exactly the same thing when I originally read he was fired. Besides, all government and college email like this is FOIA-able.Ben Zonia wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 11:28 amNot to be an advocate or excuse the behavior, but why did someone supposedly so smart, do something so stupid as to use his University email account to correspond?

Guess he’s what some people call an “over educated idiot” or “book smart, common sense stupid”. SMH

Re: U-M President Schlissel FIRED, effective immediately
People need to realize that the covid response was what the Regents wanted. The Anderson settlement could have happened long ago, and that is also a Regents issue. I wouldn't put much into students or some of the faculty bitching about leadership.

While he is an idiot for not having a lawyer and he seems to be a little bit of a piece of work…. He has a point. I’d like to know who the woman was and what position she was in exactly. Especially if public resources were used to carry on the affair. That’s the kind of thing we used to get on the evening news every night for a week straight in gory details.Matt wrote: ↑Fri Feb 11, 2022 6:58 amCharles Blackwell is a piece of shit: https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/ ... 736373001/
