I'm not sure what the right answer was, but I kinda agree with this.

Radosh said during her five years on the board, WIU has hired a president, two provosts, four vice presidents, and two deans – all through national searches.“And two of those people are still on campus. Two!” Radosh said.“We have a terrible record – a terrible record – in national searches. We have serious problems facing the university. And people hired in national searches have not solved them in my five years on the board.”She said WIU has made progress in resolving its financial problems since April, which she attributed to Mindrup and her leadership team.

I definitely agree that Mindrup is the right person. she has done more in 7 months that our last 2 Presidents combined did in >7 years.

No change in mindset for WIU president now that she’s no longer ‘interim’.
