UC Davis Chancellor Removed After Wasting Students' Tuition For Reputation Enhancement
At long last, UC Davis Chancellor Linda Katehi has been removed from her position, pending administrative review of a few untoward things, including spending students' tuition money to scrub social media of the image of a cop pepper-spraying students.
And to think parents and students could have saved themselves well over a million dollars if she had simply been suspended after the horrendous way she handled the pepper spray incident a few years back.
The chancellor, Linda P.B. Katehi, had been the target of student protests and criticism by California lawmakers. In addition to the controversy over paying to improve the university’s online profile, she had been criticized for receiving hundreds of thousands of dollars in compensation from a publisher of student textbooks and a for-profit education company, which critics said were conflicts of interest.
