How should university boards prepare?

- Strategize in advance (could happen here)
- Leverage internal expertise (strategize with political scientists, public policy scholars and law faculty)
- Respond collectively and support one another
-Stay true to the mission

This is the real fiduciary duty!

The thing about journalistic ethics and the constitution is that they aren’t temperature settings you adjust to your personal preference

Expecting her to bring down the temperature is like expecting Donald Trump to be presidential

George W. Bush's Silent Surrender: Moral Abdication in Democracy's Twilight

The apotheosized Founders risked the hangman's noose and utter destitution for eight brutal years but Bush won't even issue a statement on the Internet.

In my defense, I have no respect for her www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Opinion | I testified at a congressional hearing on the JFK files — that was a mistake

As a historian invited to speak before Congress, I expected to converse with serious people. That's not what happened.

if i had the opportunity to ask a question of anyone in the administration, given this "war in chicago" messaging, i would ask them how many americans the president intends to kill in his war
