RE: mood on campus?

[Dan Marshall]

Mike... it was really more of a joke...
 
It was more making light of the fact that some continue to perpetuate
innuendo as fact.  Although the fact "may or may not be correct" to keep
referencing it then saying you're not going to share the info is anti
productive.
 
Like... Duh... of course there was a reason.  Whether it was just that Wyler
had it in for him, Zimpher hated him, or something huggs did... obviously
there was a reason.  It's just that some on the forum seem to know "THE"
reason, and it get mentioned... over and over then we're told we don't know
anything, and if only we knew blah blah... again... 
 
I've heard rumors from all different directions.... including some that
include bad things about Huggins... but to date, NO ONE has verified any of
them(none of the rumors I have heard mentioned breaking any laws or NCAA
rules... more just image stuff). Some of the rumors come from people I
really trust through people they really trust, but still to date I have no
verification so I don't perpetuate them, and I take them for what they are
worth.  This does not men that I don't believe the people here that post
that they know some REAL inside information, from what I gather some of the
vary people I am talking about DO have some good sources and info, and I
believe them to be truthful respectable people.  It's just that if one
decides not to share the info, it's not fair to use it as evidence.
 
IE... I'm in court... Well, you're honor, I have a photo of the crime in
progress so I know John doe didn't do it.... Judge, "show me the photo", ...
me "no, I don't want to reveal my source".... Judge "evidence dismissed"
Unsubstantiated evidence is unsubstantiated and can't be used in an
argument... it's basic.  So, when someone spouts off statements like "There
was a reason" it will create questions, and basically again, start a debate,
all without any real evidence.

Not sure what you mean, Dan, and this is the crucial question.  Do you mean
that Huggs did something that we are not aware of, or do you mean that the
reason is that NZ and her cohorts are just incompetent, ego-centered, etc.
Maybe email me off the forum and confidentially if you like.  
 
Perhaps I should offer my perspective of being in the academic world 34
years.  Politics in the academy can be viscious.  However, although I have
had my share of political battles, I have never once been treated
maliciously by an administrator.  In fact, I have always felt that senior
administrators always tried to sure that justice was ultimately done.  This
is why I find this whole situation so bizarre.  It seems like an absolute
travesty of justice.  Maybe I have just been lucky.

My daughter, who is a senior and lives on campus was VERY upset about the
firing as were her friends. But since that time, as more time passes, they
all have seemed to have gotten accustomed to it, and on my last visit, they
seemed to take the approach that there must have been a reason, and they are
more concerned about classes, parties, jobs, etc.

It is discussed infrequently.  I have gotten no feel for anyone's mood.  I
think there are many who are upset and many more who are disinterested and
simply focusing on their jobs (faculty/staff) or schoolwork (students).

Now that the Fall Quarter is in full swing, I was wondering if anyone has a
reasonably objective feel for the mood on campus, especially among the
faculty?  Do they think that Zimpher should be dumped?  Is there 'revolution
in the air?"  Or, is it all perceived as a relatively minor bump in the
road?  I'm not asking how anyone on this list feels, because we are all very
biased in terms of interest in athletic teams, rather I am asking about the
general mood in the faculty lunch rooms.
