Jamie will be dealing with a new university president less than a year from now.

I don’t think it will affect him much right away. Too much in motion to change it up now.

Agree, unless there is movement to hire a Gordon Eaton clone and that isn't happening for a variety of reasons in addition to athletics.

 

[JM4CY]

They absolutely need to nail this hire. There's too much at stake with all that's going on in the athletics world.

 

[Bret44]

Didn't that Cyclone Larry guy do it before? I am sure he could do better this time.

She's been there longer than I realized. It feels like it has only been 2-3 years but she started in 2017. Time flies.

I believe the tradition is for all university presidents to get a building named after them. I wonder which one she will get?

Speaking of that, what building bears Leath's name? I assume it's the hangar for the ISU plane?

It could certainly impact how long he stays on as AD if it's the wrong president.

Of course we will eventually have someone else no matter what someday, but we could do a lot worse than JP

The Leath Landfill.

The building with the Entomology department should be renamed. She is a Bug Scientist.

JP will stay on regardless of who the next President is IMO. He wants to see CyTown gets developed and he wants to be involved with the next B12 TV deal. After those two items are completed, he is done as his new contract runs through 2030 IIRC.

 

[NWICY]

It'll be interesting to see who gets picked internal or external candidate. This is out of my realm, hope the selection committee gets it right.

That appears to be the Advanced Teaching and Research Building. Wintersteen Hall is much less of a mouthful, and less generic.

I believe it’s a landing light at the Ames airport. Paid for it himself (supposedly)

Kind of interesting to ponder now about the decision to close down the Insect Zoo.

There's too much at stake with all that's going on in the ENTIRE world

Yeah, but Jischke got his building while he was still here because no one was going to be in favor of it once he was gone.

I thought it was one of the manure piles at the ISU horse barn?

I thought he was pretty decent.

Port-a-potties in ISU parking lots. I visit them every year and leath a donation.

 

[NorthCyd]

Higher ed is headed for some pretty treachous times. Need this to be a really good hire.
