Curious how accountability happens here. No presidents got fired. They didn't lose their income, or a portion of their income. Maybe if there was some real consequences to their decisions they would have acted differently?

Perfectly stated. Even politicians have a degree of accountability - they have to run for re-election. And, if we continue to vote for them, it's our fault, not theirs. No accountability whatsoever in academia. None.

Besides, in academia group think is rewarded with advancement. So if things start out wrong, they just get worse and worse. Ever talked to someone seeking tenure with opinions different than the tenure committee?

These Presidents, except for WSU & OSU can point to тАШsuccessтАЩ of their school now being in new conference, w/ new $ TV contracts. They are being patted on back in most cases.
