Kitzhaber fires Rob Mullens over raises for coaches

Just kidding. While Kitzhaber fired Lariviere in part because of the 6% raises he gave faculty, and rescinded the raises Kroger gave at the DOJ, there’s no sign he is going to do anything about the 21% raises that Athletic Director Rob Mullens and Bob Berdahl gave the coaches – paid in part with UO tuition money. I guess the coaches are more important to UO’s academic mission and the Gov’s 40-40-20 plan? 8/16/2012.
