If they do select an interim president, I would guess it will be Ms. Irwin-Knott again. She would have the public financial chops to navigate the bond & loan issues. And she knows the VU org. chart from her interim President stint between Heckler and Padilla.
Homecoming is very late this year. Last weekend in October.
Odds.
2:1 Padilla
8:1 Popular current professo
10:1 popular former one
20:1 Alumni guest speaker
Where do you rank the provost? Popular professor/former dean of engineering, also a Valpo alum.
For the love of God - cash out and get rid of Padilla now and move on. Why Valpo keeps him around is beyond me.
Oh, of course. Johnson makes perfect sense. He checks all of those boxes. Hope they did that.
I just found the Opening Convocation is Thursday, August 22. Vegas moved the Provost into the #2 slot at 6:1. Who will be speaking?
