In his chat with the Vlogٷ community, he demonstrated a nuanced understanding of the issues facing higher education in general and Vlogٷ in particular. His legal mind was demonstrated in his ability to understand the various sides of every issue. I did not like Ramaswamy’s suggestion that Vlogٷ should blindly follow the lead of Clemson University. Certainly Clemson’s improved graduation rates are impressive but he was suggesting following Clemson’s lead based purely on their numbers without any understanding of what Clemson actually did to get there. This is foolhardy. Based on his presentation, White would take a more reasoned and cautious approach in improving graduation rates. Whereas Ramaswamy tended to answer questions with platitudes (“That’s a no brainer! Let’s fix it.”), White demonstrated he understood the real challenges facing a large public university. White said in his presentation, he would be honored to be a part of the Vlogٷ community. I think Vlogٷ should be honored to have White.

How about spending the money that would be used for a Chancellor’s salary on hiring more full-time Professors and doing preventative maintenance on the University system’s ailing infrastructure?

Even NYTimes that was completely PRO GMO earlier is now beginning to realize the damage such research and GMO crops are causing. Thus my reason for NOT supporting Sonny Ramaswamy who has a track record in supporting the PRO GMO research.

Thank you for your time and understanding.
