"Hypocrisy 101" to be offered at UNM next year.

Soon not to be UNM President David Schmidly has announced that he will join the ranks of the UNM faculty upon stepping down from his Presidency.

According to the Journal, link,"He looks forward to returning to teaching and will offer a course on leadership at the Rio Rancho campus."

Leadership? really?

Will he call it; Leadership New Mexico Style?

In a speech before Leadership Sandoval County graduates, Schmidly listed "vital leadership attributes". On his short list; being "ethical".

Schmidly is not ethical. Will he have a guest speaker on the
day his class looks at ethical?

If ethical means anything at all, it means honest. It means
responding to legitimate questions by answering candidly,
forthrightly, and honestly.

Ask yourself one question; do you know the truth about Locksleygate?

I would argue the answer is no. If there had been even the
semblance independent investigation, if the findings of that
investigation had been made public, then and only then could
anyone say with any conviction at all, that the whole (ethically redacted) truth is known.

UNM President David Schmidly blocked that investigation of his own public service, link, and got away with it.

Will he point to that as an example of leadership "New Mexico style"?

Not only in plain sight, but above the fold in the Metro section
of the Journal.

Nobody ever said the good ol' boys don't have balls.

I'm not sure on this one Ched.
Having a prostitute teach about fidelity might be insightful.
In both cases, severe violators of certain ethics probably know ethics inside and out in order to violate them.
Unfortunately, lack of good charactor in the case of the hooker, or Scmidly, or Brooks, is the falling grace here.
