Evan Dobelle FIRED

The President of the University of Hawaii system, Evan Dobelle, was fired by the Board of Regents yesterday!


Dobelle was hired few years ago as the savior to this university, as the antidote to the stale Kenneth Mortimer who had no big picture plan for improving the university. But it is Dobelle who left in a lot bigger disgrace than Mortimer. At least Mortimer knew when it was time to go, and he resigned!

And Dobelle being the idiot, made the endorsement TV ad for looser candidate Mazie Hirono! That's not a UH President is for? Keep politics out of this university mister!

And Dobelle had an idiotic proposal to move Aloha Stadium to Kapolei. It's bad enough that the current location in Halawa is far from the university, putting in Kapolei is even worse! I can't believe there are people out there who defend that idea!

ANd that logo, which used an out-of-touch mainland company to design it! And Dobelle gave a wise-ass answer when asked why didn't UH let students design a new logo!

Hopefully, we find a better Prez!
