Won't be hard to crash.
No argument there.

My exposure to Dr. Bendapudi would suggest that she doesn't get pushed around; she does the pushing. Would love to see her take this approach in resolving the 10 year (+) old alumni relations issue that her predecessors clearly did not have "the stomach*" to address.

*IIMHO the deficiency was a bit south of the stomach

I was wearing a PSU jacket in the food store today. A guy walked by and said, “Tell ‘em to put the statue back up.” I said, “That’s right!”

How refreshing.

I hate him, and me.
So, you actually spend time somewhere other than Starbucks.

That is the real news here, people.

So on one side we have Dr. Bendapudi. On the other is the entire sport media. She loses and I'm gonna bet she's smart enough to know it.

Neeli, please take this opportunity to remember that barren is available for consultation.

And I'm betting she's smart enough to know it doesn't have to be an all or nothing proposition.

As much as I would like to agree with you it’s not going to be Dr Benapudi who makes the decision as to what it is and isn’t.

I always thought the statue was a very poor likeness of Joe. And the pose with the index finger raised symbolizing #1 was not a good representation of what he valued. I won't be sorry if it never sees the light of day again.
I would be OK with it seeing the light of day again but with a different finger raised up.
