DONNA DAVIS, FORMER PROFESSOR OF MANAGEMENT
INFORMATION SYSTEMS
(May 27, 2010) GH Chatter Chatter has it that CoB dean Lance Nail is losing a major ally in Donna Davis, who is
scheduled to retire on 30-June-2010. Recent reports here at USMNEWS.net show how Davis spoke up for Nail at
the May-2010 faculty senate meeting, after other senators questioned the CoB’s high-dollar spending on
accounting professors. The “losing” part of the chatter may, however, be off base. Davis is scheduled to teach an
8W2 course for the CoB in the fall of 2010. Can you see the whole retirement thing going away? Some can.
