No debate neccessary! If you got something to say, say it. What accomplishments can you point to?

The campus renovation doesn't say "Bond" for all those buildings does it?

Before David took his position A&T was only raising about 1 million a year, since David took the position we have been raising right at 12 million a year, and that is a fact.

Many times when the one that hires you leaves, it's time for you to leave also. There's something to be said for having an advocate in high places. Maybe Hoard felt this was his time.

Its in his best interest to leave now. Those old school people that are in charge right now are crazy. I hope the new chancellor will be a lot younger than those interim people.

Strange, I remember the Chancellor saying at Annual Chancellor Dinner during Homecoming that last year was the first time the Annual Giving Campaign exceeded $1million, which would mean another $11,000,000 is from non-alumni contributors. That would be truly impressive. Surely a factual number as impressive as that ($12,000,000) is supported in some University publication. Please provide a link.

It was reported on "News2" just this morning. They did a piece on David leaving A&T.

Since there was no action from this interim dude concerning last week's ridiculous headline about A&T, count on him to coast through the school year with no problems. This dude will also work overtime to make sure that there are no "what he calls" embarrassments on his watch. Be forewarn don't say "Aggie Pride" too loud around this interim cat.

Since we knew about Renick leaving since FEBRUARY, why don't we have a real chancellor yet?!?!

It normally takes a year or even more for most of the UNC system schools to pick a Chancellor. You want the absolute right person to lead. It took a year to find Renick. He wasn't perfect but he was by far the best chancellor this school has ever had.
I hope the board and the search folks take their time and find someone that will keep the momentum he started going or even kick it up another notch. Otherwise we could rush into something and end up with someone like Hackney long term.
No thanks. I'll wait.
