By Madison Thompson —
U of L has been without a permanent president for more than a year. Trustees held listening tours for faculty, staff and students regarding qualities in the university’s next leader Jan. 17 and 18.
While the listening tours were held with good intentions and transparency in mind, was anything new actually discussed?
The listening tours being open to everyone was considerate, but not worth the time and effort.
Nearly every quality discussed during the listening tours fall into one broad category or the other.
