Important to get a big turnout and lots of tough questions – particularly at the Gerlingher reception at 5PM. What are Pernsteiner and the Board willing to promise, in writing, to a new UO President regarding UO autonomy?
1/11/2012: Hear Berdahl explain how he plans to help get UO free of OUS and keep us in the AAU.
Allyn Ford is the OSU alumnus and OUS board member who is chairing the UO presidential search committee, and the donor behind the Ford Alumni Center, a.k.a. the gift that keeps on taking.
Dr. Pernsteiner has the power and incentives to sabotage the presidential search and hire a mediocre toadying suck up – a personality type he is quite familiar with. Here’s your chance to ask him how he plans to do that:
CAMPUS FORUM I & SENATE MEETING
Wednesday, January 11
3 p.m. in the EMU BallroomFeaturing a Presidential Search Update:
Your participation is strongly encouraged…
• ROBERT BERDAHL, Interim University President will give his inaugural address to the university community and receive questions and comments from the audience.
• GEORGE PERNSTEINER, Chancellor, and ALLYN FORD, Chair of the Presidential Search Committee, will discuss the search for University President and receive questions and comments from the audience.
Please join us at 3 p.m. in the EMU Ballroom for this important event. The entire university community and the general public are encouraged to attend.
CAMPUS FORUM II
5 p.m. in Gerlinger Alumni LoungeFaculty, staff, and students are also invited to have an informal discussion about the presidential search process with GEORGE PERNSTEINER, Chancellor, and ALLYN FORD, Chair of the Presidential Search Committee.
Minor point, but I do not think Allyn Ford went to OSU. I believe his degrees are from Yale (BA) and Stanford (MBA).
who pays for the search?
Pernsteiner. But he’ll take it out of our hide in the end.
