As of this point, the DI made no mention of Laura Frerichs' salary in this catalog that we could find. Nor did it print the reason for Ghosh's removal as Dean of the College of Business.

Per the Alpha Hound's request, this post rectifies the above posting. The DI's expose did indeed post Frerichs' salary. It was under UIUC Research Park, not under administration as we thought it should be, Her posted salary is $121,500. We apologize for the oversight and the incorrect implication.

Porking over the Names
The DI included in its Tuesday publication (and updated on Wednesday for corrections) a copy of the salaries of almost every University Employee from Maintenance to the president. The DI's commitment to transparency and honesty is hardly anything to crow about, but in this case they did manage to come through. This revelation to the public has made some unhappy, as this poll suggests. Seems the faculty are none-too-pleased that their usual TASSer sycophants ousted them in this manner.
The analysis required for this information cannot be inserted in just one post here. As I type, No. 5, No. 6 No. 7 and No. 9 are pouring over the long list of names and searching for patterns for related stories. We look forward to posting more once that task has been completed.

Duke under Watch
Last week we noticed an interesting little tidbit coming from Wonderland: although buried (intentional?) in the bottom of the Chronicle story, Duke has been put on monitoring status by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.
From the Story:
Though the accreditation process has been approved already, those of with noses keener than others can sniff between the lines.
While not directly, the Lacrosse Hoax is still having a subliminal effect on Duke. The revelation during the case that many of the involved faculty had little or no claim to academic prominence (of meaning, that is. Just because, for example, Michael Hardt consorts with criminals such as Antonio Negri, or Eduardo Bonna-Silva becomes well known for MEChA-nized hate speech, does not vault them into the annals of legitimate academics). This scrutiny on major institutions demonstrates a far more reaching concern on what qualifies as legitimate research, a mantra originally limited to observers of the case and education reform groups,
Interesting.

it [Duke] has not “demonstrated that its institutional effectiveness, with regard to student learning outcomes, have occurred broadly in undergraduate and graduate programs [emphasis added],” according to a letter written to Duke by SACS.
