That kind of response would require accountability, which spits in the face of The Carolina Way.

This is from a meeting hosted by Provost James Dean. The same man that suggested that perhaps there was a campus wide problem with literacy, and not just with student athletes. I don’t know how the students there are not rioting in the streets right now. The Provost of your university, the one person that is supposed to put academics before every thing else, just threw the academic standing of the entire university under the bus to protect the athletic department. If you are a person that is graduating with a degree from Chapel Hill, and the PROVOST suggests aloud that the entire student body has a literacy problem, how do you refrain from punching him in the face?

“If you own it, you maintain value of the brand.”

I don’t get why they are hung up on the brand thing. Just do the right thing and the rest will take of itself. If you get into trying to maintain an image or brand, then you find yourself where they are now. Shakes head.

I don’t get why they are hung up on the brand thing.

There are two ways to come out looking good in life: 1) Do things the right way 2) Do things whichever way works paying no mind to right or wrong, but always controlling your image so that only the good shines through. People in the first category have trouble understanding what’s wrong with people in the second category. People in the second category assume everyone else cuts corners just like they do.
