11/25/2011: Did the OUS Board break the public meetings law by using a secret poll of its members to decide to fire Lariviere? Jack Bogdanski repeats the question on his popular Portland blog. No one can figure out how Dr. George Pernsteiner convinced Matt Donegan and the rest of the board to go along with his scheme to kick Lariviere off campus and take over UO. But as a US Senator and former UO student once said, “Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell No! And it ain’t over now. This is over when *we* say it’s over.” The road trip to Portland for Monday’s OUS Board meeting will go down in history.
In these difficult times, we must turn to the great figures from our past for inspiration. WWBD.
I think that’s MR. George Pernsteiner
The deadline for public comments (to the mayor and city council) about a UO proposal to buy and close Moss Street is December 3. Our local Nikemedia shlubs have not told you about this attempt to serve the Nike arena (elites) with surface parking. If you have questions about what UO is up to you can email me at [email protected]. The media is too busy wolfing day old, fat, dead birds to get you any details about this important conflict/ privatization surge.
