Hell I would have flown down and done it for $10K... I even would have felt guilty about it. Does that $30k include demolition/reconstruction of the building or just bee removal and plugging the holes? There must be more to this story... Then again... I am sure to offend some academics but... Those who can't do, teach... Those who can't teach, administrate... Those who can't administrate teach future administrators... (The last part I added because I used to work for a school that fired the superintendent and now he teaches administrative classes at SUNY Cortland) Sometimes academics aren't the smartest dogs in the pack...
