More Dobelle Memories

I just looked at the Honolulu Advertiser, and still no announcement of why UH fired Evan Dobelle. What are they hiding?

While I was negative in Dobelle in yesterday's post, I do remember some of his positive contributions! He gave approval for the Academy of Creative Media which is teaches film-making and creating video games. Hopefully in the future, it can expend into teaching students about getting into the music industry as well!

Dobelle approved the building of a new medical school with a big building in Kakaako.

Also under Dobelle's reign, there has been a lot of renovations on campus, though Student Housing still needs help

===!

My favorite memory of Evan Dobelle was the time he judged the Miss America contest and the campus feminists went apeshit over it!

I was so happy that Dobelle thumbed his nose at the Radical Feminists and got away with it.

I remember when Women Studies prof Meda Chesny Lind was a guest speaker in my Journalism class. She said that most of the women in her class was upset about Dobelle's beauty pageant judging. She said they were grossed out about the head of UH looking at women. I said those women would have to be grossed by every straight male!
