CHEA Dumps George Gollin as Director

[Martin Eisenstadt]

CHEA has dumped George Gollin as a member of its 2012-2013 Board of Directors.

An important step by CHEA to restore their lost credibility. Until 2006 CHEA was at the forefront of innovation in higher ed, with such important initiatives as HETA. It's good to see they have finally deloused and fumigated.
