Pros

Free college education and new chancellor and president for change

Cons

Bureaucratic environment with poor management. Lack of an online education platform and programs required in technology and engineering. Audit exec had no knowledge of internal auditing and lacked soft skills with subordinates. Board of Regents needs to appoint an auditor preferably with audit experience and a proper methodology to conduct audits. In addition be independent and not biased of Athletics and other departments. Work papers do not stand alone and lack consistency with reporting. Prior audit executive was demoted on account of the new audit exec. because of who the person knew. I would advise future prospects to be careful in accepting a job a with a contentious micro managing audit chief that lacks tact and strategy

Pros

Very rewarding working w/ mostly first generation college Hispanic, Anglo, and Native American students. Lots of dedicated, caring scholars/instructors and supportive staff.

Cons

Top administration's priorities are budget cuts and funding rather than academic excellence and student support or educational quality. Very low pay for faculty and staff in contrast to academic productivity and grant dollars generated. Extremely low morale and high turnover of faculty.
