(November 9, 2009) 31st & Pearl Turnover Unprecedented It's next to impossible to contemplate, as the
9-Nov-09 installment of GH Chatter does, even more faculty turnover in USM's College of Business. The
faculty turnover page here at USMNEWS.net was last updated in early Oct]-09. At that time it listed 72
faculty -- let's repeat that one, 72 faculty -- who have left the organization since former CoB dean Duane
Harold Doty arrived on the scene back in 2003. That's a turnover rate for the ages.
(January 5, 2009) 31st & Pearl Permission Slip(-Up) USM President Martha Saunders often boasts about
how USM became a national research university without asking for anyone.s permission to do so.
Saunders. brag is typical of the heads of many states. second tier institutions, proudly embracing the
"underdog" tag that is usually placed upon these same institutions by political and business leaders who
generally support a state's so-called flagship institutions. What's interesting about Saunders' statement is
that it can easily be turned on its head. Doing so is particularly relevant to USM.s College of Business,
which, in 2007, came within a hair of losing its AACSB accreditation.
