The Chronicle of Higher Education has a 440-word online article today (subscription required), with the headline "Critics Say West Virginia U. Presidential Search Was Rigged, Despite Open Process."
It is the national publication's 2nd-most emailed article of the day.
Here's the free teaser:
"Some public universities, including the University of Iowa, Indiana University, and the University of Delaware, have been criticized recently for keeping aspects of presidential searches secret. By contrast, West Virginia University has run an exceptionally public presidential search, posting regular updates on its Web site, including the résumés of three finalists, all of whom were scheduled to appear in public forums on the campus.
But the transparency has not helped West Virginia avoid being bashed by critics who say they suspect the search has been rigged."
The article also mentions Thursday's withdrawal of candidate Daniel Bernstine, president of Portland State University, and calls it "a blow to the search process."
