In general, current and former students here say they got a good education at a reasonable price, and they got jobs. But, there is no school identity or spirit. The consultants who prepared the report say the problem is financial mismanagement and that programs and curricula needs to be examined. However "Rotua Lumbantobing, a professor of economics and president of the WSCU chapter of the American Association of University Professors, said she felt the report’s findings around the need for accountability and transparency, as well as some of the critiques on leadership and organizational shortcomings, are “very close” to what she and other faculty members identify as underlying causes for the university’s “financial crisis.” But the report didn’t say it out loud, obviously,” she said. Folks, take her statement with a grain of salt. CSU system professors routinely knee-jerk blame to administrators to take the onus off of themselves. They, too, need to look in the mirror.
