The administration (and prior one) have done her multiple favors in recent years, including allowing her to stay on through this year (before this all came to light).
She has failed in pretty much every regard for multiple years, and, she took what was not just a nationally relevant program, but, a national power...certainly a premier program in the conference...and, made it almost entirely irrelevant...at the same time that her arch rival program surpassed it.
The only thing sad about this is that it is just now coming to light, as, it certainly has been known about for some time...or should have been.
She not only has now sullied her potential retirement tour, if not ended it, she complicated the already daunting job that her successor was facing...in large part because of her other failures before this. That said, her successor is committed to succeeding...and, frankly, getting to begin that process sooner is not the worst thing in the world if that is what comes of this.
