NEVADA UNIVERSITY SYSTEM REGENT'S
HEAD BITTEN OFF BY TIGER RENO GAZETTE-JOURNAL University Chancellor Calls for Sweeping Change 9/1/04 Lenita Powers "Interim [Nevada state university system] Chancellor Jim Rogers has issued a scathing call for sweeping change at the top levels of Nevada's higher education system. ... Rogers characterized the [Nevada] Board of Regents as inefficient and crippled by infighting. ...Doug Hill, one of two regents who represent Reno on the 13-member board, said Wednesday that 'If [Rogers] is looking for efficiency in government, Nazi Germany under Hitler was extremely efficient. But our Founding Fathers did not set up the Republic to be efficient. ... [Rogers] is used to giving orders and everybody clicks their heels and says Yes, sir, and follows his commands.'" |
