Who Wants an Administrator From Texas A&M?

My university is seriously considering hiring an administrator from Texas A&M as our new Chancellor. Texas A&M is a horrible, horrible place. Why would anybody in their right mind plan to hire anybody from there? The faculty there are exploited horribly. The place is a total diploma mill of the worst kind. Bleh, bleh, and once again bleh.

We’ve had a fantastic Chancellor who is now retiring. This is a person who wanted to raise the research profile of the institution and did a lot to make it possible for young scholars to do research. The last thing we want is a money-hungry business-model worshipper from a stupid place that is the laughing stock of the country.

I’m upset, people. The other candidates are also from some lousy places in Texas. We are so screwed.

I loved Texas A&M! But I can see why you wouldn’t like it.

  I’m saying that it’s a horrible place to work for as a professor. I’m kind of less worried about the student experience.

I think the pay is really good there though.

  No, it was completely LOUSY for the amount of teaching that’s so huge that I’ve never heard of anything like this before. They exploit profs like cattle, squeeze them dry and pay them a pittance. Of course, nobody but a completely desperate person who has been rejected by everybody else would even consider working with them. They expect profs to teach 5 and 5. I can assure you that such teaching has zero value. Zero. The whole school is one huge fake.

The decent Texas A&M administrators resigned together with the president in 2009.

  I interviewed with them in 2008 and they were offering the most horrible conditions in the entire country.
