It’s about time, after years of abuse, mistreatment and embarassment,
\n that BU faculty, students and alumni found the spine to stand up to
\n an incompetent administration. Many of the Dowbrigade’s colleagues
\n are finally up in arms about the succcesive debacles
\n which have

\n stocks
\n of American
\n higher education.
\n Of course the last group of BU professors who stood up to be counted
\n were quickly counted among the unemployed..<\/em>.<\/p>\n
\n launched a website called ”BUWatch”<\/a> to pressure the
\n administration
\n for reform.

\n suit against the trustees for devaluing their degrees.<\/p>\n
