What an odd report and even odder comments! Entirely missing is the issue of honesty and truth in universities including OSU. The so-called "activist-admin disconnect" is but one element of a massive disconnect between the OSU administration at almost all levels and students, staff, and faculty. There is no communication or information or sharing or "shared governance" at any level. The president is absent. The countless VPs with no accountability make decisions without consultation or evidence, threaten students without cause or responsibility with expulsion and arrest, unbalance the admissions of undergraduates without connection to any campus population or even each other. Talk to students about socially responsible policies, provide a safe campus, foster open discussion? Not at OSU. For a simple barometer, follow the blustering of campus "spokesmen" who deny almost all requests for information. We are witnessing the passing of a university with great potential.
