    WAY TO GO D.O.E. —- KEEP THE INTEREM-ACTING PRINCIPAL IN PLACE.  HE IS THE LAUGHING STOCK AT THE COLUMBUS CAMPUS AND GETS ZERO, ZERO, ZERO RESPECT!!!  DISGRACE!!!  I HOPE THE RUMOR ABOUT CHANCELLOR WALCOTT’S FORMER SENIOR ADVISOR TO HIM (WHOS LAST NAME IS “CHASE”) IS NOT REALLY IN THE CHASE FAMILY AS THAT WOULD BE VERY BAD PUBLICITY FOR THE D.O.E.  SHE IS NOW THE CHIEF DEPUTY LEGAL COUNSEL – SEEMS VERY ODD.  OH WELL, IT WOULD EXPLAIN WHY AN INTEREM-ACTING PRINCIPAL WITH MORE MEDIA COVERAGE ON HIM THAN THE PRESIDENT, WOULD REMAIN.  WAY TO GO!!!!
