Degreeboard Gone?

Now let's see if Gollin can figure out who the UofI Conflict of Interest Officer is and what she is doing to prevent nepotism.

Oh please...
Remember Ward Churchill?
One thing is to delight big brother & its high priests with 'scandalous' ideas while sipping champagne & eating oysters... even big brother's henchmen need their iota of adrenaline, and living room revolutionaries provide it by finger pointing the atrocity of the day: native american doom; racism; the plight of the have nots...boy, does big brother love these nimrods making $100.000 a year and up when they protest against discrimination, preferential treatments and so forth...

Another thing is to actually walk on big brother's big feet (and they ARE very big )...who knows...some righteous officer might have a second or a third look at that "mutant pigs sold for food" or "dirty papists" thing and find it in violation of one or several laws with stiff penalties...or at least some ethical norm worth the termination of the employment; some other equally righteous officer might just realize many years after the fact that a doctoral dissertation is supposed to be individual, not the collective work of an entire football team...don't you think there are at least a couple paragraphs in the gigabytes of codes of conduct, rules, rulings and so forth that consider it an academic offense?
