More UIUC Scandals, Gollin Does Nothing

[Martin Eisenstadt]

Since George Gollin (George D. Gollin, George Dana Gollin) has his nose up people's asses from Liberia to Washington state, he can't very well claim that he isn't responsible for what goes on at his own campus.

But that apparently is how they do it in Illinois.  When UIUC provost Linda Katehi fled Illinois for greener pastures at UC Davis, she also refused to comment on her responsibility for the scandal.
She later sent a "note" to UC Davis officials claiming she was "not involved in the admissions decisions."

California state senator Leland Yee called bullshit:    

"It's interesting that she says, 'It's above my pay grade,' and that's that," he told The Chronicle. "Is she going to continue this 'see no evil, hear no evil,' approach, and just cover up what may be going on?"

Too bad senator Yee isn't working in Illinois, where he can call bullshit on George Gollin (George D. Gollin, George Dana Gollin) too.  Is George Gollin going to continue this "see no evil, hear no evil" approach, and just cover up what may be going on too?

When are those CHEA wankers going to call BS on Gollum?  What contributions does he make to CHEA at any level?  He is just using them as a substitute for any actual credibility in his new field.  It's tough to be an "expert" when you don't have any expertise.  

I'm sure he brings CHEA all the same managerial skills that he brought to managing his family.  His wife violates FDA laws, his daughter is a foul-mouthed lesbian radical cheerleader, that's some track record.  His dog probably takes a dump on his neighbor's lawn, too.

But that apparently is how they do it in Illinois.  

More about how they do it in Illinois.  Commission asks for docs on student admissions, George Gollin's employer produces docs--but leaves out GPA and test scores!  

The commission has received a copy of the 1,800 pages of documents related to Category I that were provided to the Tribune in which the university redacted academic information, a decision the newspaper is fighting in court.

On Tuesday, Mikva asked the university to provide the test scores, grade-point averages and high school ranks for politically connected candidates.

Higher-ups called shots on clout list

Since the Commission has no subpena power, expect them to sit on their collective thumbs.  Meanwhile, the Chicago Tribune sues to get the redacted info.
Tribune sues U. of I. for applicant data

Just who are these "higher-ups" who were calling the shots?  Could one of them be Dr. Melanie Loots, UIUC Associate Vice Chancellor for Research and wife of George Gollin (George D. Gollin, George Dana Gollin)???  Is this why Gollin is refusing to comment?????

Very funny.  Eighteen hundred pages of useless information.  Your tax dollars at work, Illinois taxpayers, funding a cover-up.

What is George Gollin investigating?  Look at this dickless asshole over at DD, trying to get Vinny to rat out his sources:

Sounds like a policy violation to me, and one that is likely to get the person revealing the information into trouble.

Like to tell us the names of the schools about which you have obtained this information, and which (regional) accreditors provided it to you?

Yeah, Vinny, the nerve of you asking for and getting true, useful information from university administrators, then telling others how to do it.  In Illinois you would have gotten 1800 pages of bullshit.  G-Man George Gollin is gonna investigate that.  Cough up names so he can stalk and harass these perpetrators and their families.  As long as it's not going on right under his big nose he'll be all over it.

Never forget that most often tall claims of 'insider's knowledge' over the internet belong in the 'seven figures income' category.
I remember I once wanted to get this rare, old TV series...on a board there was this braggart who claimed to have high powered contacts in the TV industry and he had gotten the tapes and was remastering them, but all he had for then was one DVD with a few episodes; he claimed the same about many more long lost series.
When I told him s-he was a fraud because I had gotten that 'super rare' DVD with the few episode from someone else, he said he had supplied my source, whom he didn't know, of course.

What is George Gollin investigating?

How about a convicted sex offender living in the UIUC library?    

Since George doesn't actually ever go into the undergraduate library, why should he care?  

As if any self-respecting sex offender would have any interest in a nose-picking, ass-scratching reprobate like Gollum.  

But wouldn't you think a super-sleuth and self appointed G-Man would have some concern for the innocent students on his campus?  

Ummmm, nope, not interested, no comment, don't care.

Sex offender found to be living inside campus library

A convicted sex offender was found to be sheltering himself at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign's Undergraduate Library. Police Lt. Roy Acree said Eric J. Kaminski, 21, was discovered in the library around 2:30 a.m. on November 13. Library security believes Kaminski, who was convicted of a sex crime in Michigan, had been living in the library behind movable bookshelves in the northeast corner of the building...

Eric J. Kaminski

Great career in Hollywood or politics...just a hunch...

With a track record like that, I'm surprised they didn't immediately appoint him to the Oregon ODA, or make him UIUC Associate Vice Chancellor for Research.

[Don Dresden]

So we know why George The Sphincter Gollin isn't doing anything about it.  It's only a few dead students, not something really important like protecting the wealthy higher education cartel from cut rate competitors.  

The question is why isn't Governor Pat Quinn appointing seven more political hacks to investigate this?

If I was going to investigate something, I'd like to know who it was in the US government that queered the deal on SRU's Liberian accreditation.  It's a safe bet nobody in the State Department gave two craps what the cannibals in Liberia were doing.  Somebody put them up to it.  

Gollin's socialist idiot pal Bill Foster didn't get elected to Congress until 2007, so as much as he fits the bill he wasn't around at the time.
  
Plus, even though most pols have the selectivity of fifty cent crack whores, it isn't likely that Foster would bother with a putz like Gollum just to get his small change political contributions.

A more likely suspect would be Gollum's leftist divorcee girlfriend Betty McCollum, who was first elected to the House from Minnesota in 2000.  This is the same dimwit with whom Gollum "collaborated" on his stupid article about degree mill MDs.  Apparently nobody told these two fools that medical doctors are licensed in every state, so bogus degree or not it's already illegal to practice medicine without a license.  Well, obviously Gollum doesn't do well when he has less than his usual 16 person collaboration quorum.

Although Minnesota is off the beaten path from Illinois machine politics, the representative from the Al Franken State gained some national attention back in 2004 when she called for the resignation of Rod Paige as Secretary of Education.  The fact that Paige is black probably made Gollum realize that she shared not only his radical marxist politics but his racism as well.

Remember, this is the dame who decided to run for city council because her uncoordinated kid got hurt on a slide in a city park.  True to her socialist ideology, she blamed her parental incompetence and negligence on the government.  That also must have struck a familiar chord with Gollum, whose own incompetent parenting has become the stuff of legend.

Remember also that while Gollum is ignoring all these scandals and degenerate immorality going on right in his own backyard (and even under his own roof), he is always busy skulking around, looking for more opportunities for sneaky, underhanded, backdoor treachery.  

When he finds these useful idiots, whether socialist drones like McCollum or the mentally infirm like QTJ, he sets about to manipulate them to his own deviant Marxist purposes.  Your own business may be next on his list of decadent capitalists deserving eradication, so the fact that his slimy tentacles reach so high up into government should scare everyone.

123 pages of e-mail messages

We took a quick look at these email messages and didn't see any specific mention of either George Gollin (George D. Gollin, George Dana Gollin) or Melanie Loots.  However, we did see a familiar name--UIUC administrator Ruth Watkins.  Ruth Watkins was the poster at the old military forum who blew the whistle on the anti-Catholics slurs of Gollin spouse Melanie Loots:

UIUC Administrator Slurs Catholics

Ruth Watkins    View profile   Jul 19 2005, 10:05 am

A University of Illinois administrator has used the term "Papists" to publicly slur the Roman Catholic religion, and has belittled its religious customs as "dirty."

Melanie J. Loots, UIUC's Associate Vice Chancellor for Research, has been quoted in public internet documents belittling Catholicism and insulting its rites and customs. Loots is the wife of radical socialist UIUC professor George Gollin-Loots, best known for his vicious public criticisms of the Bush administration.

The offensive statements were included in documents posted on the internet by the Loots' daughter, Cordelia Rose Loots, who attends University Laboratory High School, a remedial institution located on the Urbana-Champagne campus. (http://themagnetwomanprophecies.blogspot.com/)

The revelations of public use of the religious slur "Papists" by a public university administrator have shocked Roman Catholics throughout the world. Why does UIUC allow administrators and faculty to attack Catholics and Catholicism with impunity?

Is there a double standard at UIUC? And if so, for whom? Shouldn't, e.g., Jews, socialists, and lesbians be held to the same standards of conduct as everyone else? Why is the university administration singling out Catholics for these vicious, hateful slurs?

Roman Catholics are demanding that University President B. Joseph White, UIUC Chancellor Richard H. Herman, the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois, and the Illinois Attorney General, investigate these hateful acts and words, and take appropriate action against the people responsible. Roman Catholics believe they should be free to attend this public, tax-supported institution without fear of cruel, bigoted attacks, and particularly not by university administrators or faculty, individually or acting in concert.

Ruth Watkins
Nice hair!

Watkins was the associate provost with responsibilities for undergraduate education and academic affairs at Illinois in 2003 before becoming vice provost in 2006. As chief of staff in the provost’s office, she has been responsible for providing leadership to associate and assistant provosts; advice and support on matters of campus leadership and direction; and support, leadership and guidance for the Academic Council of Deans.

If somebody is going to take a fall for all the dirty dealing in the admissions office, you can bet it will a small fish or whistle-blower like Ruth Watkins, rather than one of the fat cats with actual culpability.
