Prepping for #Hist466 (History of the #MexicanRevolution at #WNMU) to begin in a few weeks by rereading Justin Castro's Radio in Revolution, and Julian Dodson's Fanáticos, Exiles and Spies.

#History #HigherEd
One week in #WNMU system still shut down. Student's still can't get in. Communication and updates are almost non-existent.
#WNMU ransomware attack. University is failing to communicate and update students, staff, and faculty.
On the other hand, I successfully brought in $10 million in federal grants and competitive federal funds to a university #WNMU within 365 days only be bullied and then fired by a president who absconded with $2 million with his wife, Valerie Plame. And it was "normal." To me: #fuckhighereducation
So if you happen to go to #WNMU in the art department or have any links to the #NMAM or New Mexico Art Museum and you happen to see this someday, hit me up!
Silversity at #5!

Western New Mexico University’s former president is asking a court to dismiss a lawsuit by the state Department of Justice targeting his lucrative severance package.
This case is a good one for peppery language in court filings. 🥊

The new filing added ...violation of the state Constitution by the board's [indemnity] agreement to defend Shepard against future claims ...violates the constitution by obligating the state “to a contingent liability of an unlimited amount for an unlimited term."
This is what places like Silver City, New Mexico never understood. "Complete Streets" is freedom. It's all about basic human rights. Maybe the future will illuminate this reality.

#WNMU and #SilverCity can be very proud to have so drastically violated any sense of governance and ethical propriety to have this proposed legislation for greater accountability in New Mexico higher education.

Can't help but think of the #WNMU President and Board of Regents.
A study in (rural) complicity. The cover of the local paper knowing that this #WNMU President stole $1.9 million *minimum* from the statistically described "disadvantaged" people of #SilverCity #NewMexico. This event was organized by a Vice President implicated in the crimes. @govmlg.bsky.social
By the time New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez petitioned a court earlier this week to block a $1.9 million severance payment for Western New Mexico University’s outgoing president, Joseph Shepard, the sum had already been paid.

"We were getting one answer when we were asking for the documents, and that answer is, 'Everyone's on break,' " Torrez said. "Apparently, the only one not on break was the person who was responsible for cutting checks."

"The Board’s assertion that they operate outside the purview of both the Governor’s office and the Department of Higher Education is incorrect and reflects a broader issue of accountability."
Student Regent Trent Jones is only Regent who has not resigned. Shepard says that without him, there is no payroll or student refunds. Intimidation tactics until the end, I guess.

Coverage! Thank you.
#WNMU Regents agree to resign.
For any #wnmu lurkers...Reminder today is the Faculty Senate vote of no confidence against the BOR. Staff Senate vote is tomorrow morning! Let your voice be heard and let's get new forward thinking and honest leadership!
Thank you Governor Lujan Grisham for leading the State of New Mexico and for your leadership regarding Western New Mexico University. #WNMU @govmlg.bsky.social

"Given that the regents were implicated in wasteful spending along with Shepard, it is not surprising that they were keen to quash the scandal, even at the cost of another $3 million in squandered taxpayer money."
Red Flag: Senior #WNMU administrator "hugging" the #WNMU Board of Regents Chair. Both complicite in the procurement and travel investigation items and extravagance. How is that okay?

#WNMU faculty are speaking up! Thank you 🙏🏼
"[All Regents must resign]" ... “Furthermore, we call upon our state elected officials to work to remove any who will not resign, in accordance with the Constitution of the State of New Mexico,”

Happy Holidays! Thankful that New Mexico State Government attempts to represent taxpayers and appears not to tolerate grift and looting of public funds. #highereducation
