Is it corruption, hubris, or otherwise at University of Arkansas at Fort Smith (UAFS)? (A mere microcosm of a dysfunctional top-down government education system)

Today's Times Record reported that Prof. Jay Casey was languishing at a London airport until volcanic dust dissipates.  It is said that Prof. Casey was in Wales attending a conference. Another example of gross abuse of producers' earnings. In this digital/technological age, what is the purpose behind expensive personal trips?

As noted in my email of Friday, April 16th, Chancellor Beran's asking for and receiving a 6.9% increase in tuition, one wonders what percent of this tuition increase is funneled into Beran's and his aspiring, elitist staff's exorbitant and unneeded interstate and global travel extravaganzas.

For those who did not read that email, I'm including it because it sheds light on Beran and his enablers spending cabal.

Education has deteriorated into nothing more than a top-down brainwashing cabal.

For those elected officials who have dumped 10's of millions into UAFS, might reverse their practices and become better acquainted with UAFS's spending habits, you know, accountability. Most particularly the funding for the travel factory.

I do find humor in one of the excuses regarding the 6.9% increase that being what kind of degree the UAFS gives for the completion of their truck driving school.  Ah yes, there's all those "free" flu shots, certainly a function of education, would you say?

As long as boobus Americanus sit on their butts, the Berans of the world will continue to make fools of the payers.
