Heads are starting to roll at WVU in the wake of the Heather Bresch Scandal.
Provost Gerald Lang and Business School Dean Stephen Sears will step down from their current positions on June 30. According to WSAZ, Lang and Sears will remain at WVU as professors, hopefully not teaching ethics.
Lang will receive a salary of less [...]
Turns out we’re not the only one calling for WVU President Mike Garrison to resign following a recent report regarding the administration’s involvement in the Heather Bresch ordeal. This is where WVU thought it would be smart to give Bresch, daughter of WVa Governor Joe Manchin and a Mylan, Inc., employee a MBA degree she [...]
Last night, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama was in my adopted hometown of Chapel Hill in front of an audience of supporters at the Dean E. Smith Center in Chapel Hill, or as its lovingly referenced to as the Dean Dome. Obama was in town attempting to convince Chapel Hill and North Carolina voters to [...]
What’s wrong with me?
It’s a question that I keep asking myself over and over again and especially here lately.
Am I too fat? Do I make the wrong jokes? Am I too nice? Am I not nice enough?
My life is not where I thought it would be at 28. Granted, God’s blessed me in [...]
Next week, I’m delivering my first sermon.
I can’t wait. I’m a walking expectation over the prospect of delivering a message to the people where I’m serving. I get goose bumps and a huge smile just thinking about it. So does my family. A lot of my family from West Virginia, Tennessee and possibly South Carolina [...]
Today is the NFL Draft.
I’ll watch. What else am I going to watch on this Saturday? It’s April and after The Masters there isn’t much going on sports wise until you get to the Kentucky Derby next weekend.
The pick to watch is Atlanta at No. 3. The consensus thought is that the Falcons will use [...]
So today, I started to write my first sermon … ever. (That little 3-minute impromptu thing in Atlanta last summer doesn’t count.) And I have a massive case of writer’s block.
I have the title of sermon. I know what I’m preaching on. I even know the theological argument I want to make.
But outside of the [...]
W.Va. Gov. Joe Manchin was elected to his first term in 2004. Since that time, it could easily state that Manchin is more concerned with the state’s future in athletics.
Take for note that Manchin was the lead negotiator in the creation of the Friends of Coal Bowl (jokingly referred to as the Friends of Joe [...]
As many people know who read this blog, I’m an alum of West Virginia University. The institution is in the news lately and not for it’s national contender football team or Sweet 16 basketball program.
Sadly, the school is in the news for having the smell of a diploma mill in giving a master’s degree to [...]
Historically, I have a problem of taking on more than I can chew. I’ve had this problem for awhile now and it’s something that I wish I could do something about, because I really believe it has made me older than my young 28.
Right now, I have enough on my plate to give at least [...]
