Well, he certainly seems to enjoy being on the student side of education. Hope he enjoys the other side just as much.

I did not know he had a PhD in communications. I find that interesting. He's an exceptionally smart and ambitious guy with innovative ideas. But I got the sense he was a horrible communicator from a management perspective. He dominated every discussion, did not listen, and did not tolerate dissension. And hence he had a difficult time building consensus. Taking on athletics at a school like Xavier was just one of many examples.

Met him once. Not impressed. Better he go back to a tenured professor.

I guess that communicates that just because you study something doesn't mean you're necessarily good at it.

Fun name. Scott Chadwick. That sounds like an academic.

Our long national nightmare is over...who is this guy?

You are in serious need of a reflection session.
