State Rep. Earl Ehrhart, chairman of the Appropriations subcommittee on Higher Education, told college presidents in no uncertain terms to adopt such protections.
"You think you've got an issue with federal bureaucrats threatening your federal funds?" Ehrhart said at the close of a hearing on due process. "This committee controls your funds, Mr. President, and I want to see a clear statement from all of you — beyond what the [Board of] Regents is requiring — before I'm even going to have a conversation with you about your budgets, presidents."
Ehrhart said he wouldn't even talk to college presidents until they adopt "simple, basic due process protections."
That's the spirit!

I'm sure life sucks for Melissa Click. She is now famous and that picture of her is iconic.
And look at all the fucks I give! I hope she serves the maximum.
As for colleges ignoring due process rights, it's about time someone made them. I hope more state legislators follow suit.

Nursery school with beer.
Wait...where do I sign up for that? wut?
Sadly, it's only 15 days. I'm sure she'll retain her employment, and she'll probably be allowed to serve her sentence on weekends. If you need your blood pressure raised, just skim the comments of the news articles. More than a few posters decry her being "picked on" and "persecuted".
Ha! I'll bet the "muscle" that she just might get inside prison isn't what she meant.

One, the Flint water crisis is the result of a Keynesian stimulus project gone wrong.
Two, emergency managers are not always a panacea for fiscally mismanaged cities. The assumption behind handing them control of city finances is that they are grown-ups who, unlike politicians, are immune from special interest pressure and therefore more capable of making tough cuts. In reality, they can have their own political grand plans that don't always overlap with the city's fiscal interest.

Gog: "Ha ha! Rape is funny, isn't it?"
Yep, it sure is; especially when it is an asshole who tries to throw his/her power onto others.
I'd be lying if I didn't say that I do get some satisfaction out of seeing a bully put in his/her place.
And, if that bully calls for "muscle" to physically intimidate someone - well, then let muscle put her in her place.
Live by the sword die by the sword.
