Another testament to the utter incompetence and duplicity with which this whole affair was concocted and handled by the University. Let's hope that the two candidates got substantial salary increases and financial support for their bands out this, but it is hard to see why anyone with any credibility would touch this job, knowing what was done to Waters, and how the administration and School of Music want to change the best college Band in the country to suit their agenda. Now we are about to enter the summer, when, after the students and many faculty leave campus, the University has free rein to do what they want, without fear of an adverse community reaction. It's when Gee and Waters were dealt with; too bad for the administration that they made such a gross miscalculation on when that clamor would subside. And so we stagger on, mired in a dispute that would never have happened in the first place had the University and Trustees behaved with any semblance of integrity. What a mess.
