I'm sure the faculty senate has some valid complaints but the raise issue is largely beyond the Chancellor's controls. When funding from the state continues to get cut (probably more of that to come), it's a tough time to ask for a raise. That money has to come from somewhere. Comparing the faculty salaries to administration's salaries is an age old beef and wasn't created at App, nor was it created by Everts.

I don't know the details, so I can't say whether the "no confidence" is deserved but I do hate seeing this division at my alma mater at this sensitive time.

I will say this after reflection. It appears to me that the Faculty Senate decided to be a Johnny come lately to the protest scene. On the heels of Black at App protests they felt it was a good time to pile on. Until we can change the makeup of the legislature I wouldn’t want to take a chance on who they might shove down our throat. And like you said even during Peacocks tenure pay raises were an issue.

Somewhat connected to App State's opening though more about UNC-CH and the overall BOG.

Rumor has it that Tim Moore, former speaker of the NC House, is set to become ECUs new Chancellor. Should further cement the idea about not being too keen on the idea of the UNC BOG selecting a new chancellor right now. Too political of a pick and most importantly no experience beforehand.

I am Facebook friends with one of his staff members. I'll see if anything is being posted on that person's Facebook page later today.

What are the chances that DG heads out the door? Sometimes it is better to pick your new boss than to have to deal with whoever someone else chooses for you.

I've also seen a lot around Everts favoring athletics fees and athletics programs over the rest of the student body wants/needs. Tough to think that if that is an actual driver then the next Chancellor would have the same outlook.

Anyone who knows what they're talking about...What's the next step here. Does Everts fight back? Does anything really happen as a result or is this vote just a formal "we don't like you"?

While at App, I took a sports administration course as part of my minor. Given some things I learned in that class, I would venture a guess that App 34, UNC 31, might be an irritating mosquito in the mix.

As far as I've seen so far, just the formal "we don't like you". Everts definitely won't make any public statements about it. But I've heard she/her office has reached out to certain members of faculty for individual conversations.

I think, it's windy up on the mountain and the professors are pissing into it. It's about in person classes. I hope they are able to continue them and keep App in a leadership position on this front.

Something is not right. Are politics at play here?
Certainly so! Always! Party politics, campus politics and personal poliitics! Politics at any one of those three levels would be enough to cause a train wreck--but put all three levels of politics together with Covid-19 on a campus of 20,000 students and add in the volatility or explosiveness of faculty members with 15, 20 or 25 years of tenure working with upstart newbies while competing for promotions to become dean of an academic department or program or to a vice-chancellorship or some other position with a "nice-sounding" title and a substantial salary increase and you've got a boiling pot on a red-hot stove. Add in some wicked jealousy and some two-faced co-workers and you get the drift...someone is bound to get badly burned. Actually a lot of "someones" will get burned. Those folks have long memories.

I don’t know the inside story on our Chancellor: how she operates on a daily basis BUT this statistical data looks very good for her. By any standard, I am very pleased with this information! I am sure there is more to the story that I’m not privy too; but this looks amazing !

God, I’m sorry, goodness no, we can’t have our university system being politicized. Well not by the “wrong” people. I’ll keep saying it, the leadership and staff at our university, to the extent possible needs to reflect the values and beliefs of the people of N.C.!!!!!

What does this have to do with chancellor Everts?


It would be great to get more context about what happened. I don't exactly consider Todd Starnes to be a solid source for anything. He has said many of those negative things about people who oppose his view so its really the pot calling the kettle black. Like I said, I'd like to see the rest of the lesson instead of what he cherry picked to try and fit his agenda.

Politics has broke some of yalls brains. Sad to see. It’s not the fact Tim Moore is a republican that I particularly care about. It’s that he’s never been involved in academia. Let alone leading a university. Feel free to let your level of satisfaction of things be dictated by the political party of a person, but that ain’t gonna be me MJohn.

I said nothing about anything being dictated by politics. I said a number of times that the leadership and staff at our state run universities should reflect the values and beliefs of the people of our state. I have also said that I believe that means a more, not less diverse staff, with diversity of thought being the key ingredient. I don’t know enough about Tim Moore to make a judgement but maybe it would be good to have someone with a different perspective and skill set. My wife has been in academia for 35 years and she has told me many times that the leadership at the top has become entrenched in its thinking. One of the founding principles of our nation is that we must receive representation for paying our taxes. I see our state funded universities as being institutions that should be governed by that founding principle. In other words, the people, tax payers, who pay for the universities should be “represented” at these universities. More and more I see monolithic thought at our universities that is not representative of the people of N.C.
