(May 1, 2007) Rock, Paper, Scissors -- Rock! How Hiring (and Firing) in the EFIB has Gone off of the Rails Recently, a
USMNEWS.NET report indicated that a report on hiring in the EFIB was forthcoming. That report has since morphed

(May 8, 2007) Hosed by Carter Recently, a complaint filed by an EFIB professor against EFIB Chairman George Carter’s
2006 annual evaluation practices made its way to USMNEWS.NET. That complaint, along with other documentation
