What wonders?! The man was a self-serving, mean-spirited, manipulative egotistic fraud who squandered countless public funds on his aristocratic lifestyle (check out the total cost of his mandated renovations on the prez house). There are rumors that millions are uncounted for under his regime. Someone needs to seriously investigate these allegations and, of course, remove the name of such an inhumane scoundrel from the Human Services Bldg.

Wonders? Anything would have been an improvement after the quagmire that was the Pogue era. The campus has lots of nice expensive apartments and statues and pastry shops and hot tubs, but it still doesn't have a new science facility. If he wasn't so greedy, he wouldn't have left, because there is still a lot of work to do to improve the education infrastructure, not just the lifestyle accoutrements.

So they let go a wonderful man who did wonders for Edinboro after only 1 year??? There WERE expecting miracles it seems then!! Brown is the fourth president the school has gone through in the past six years?? Wonder why??? If Dowling College was looking to get ahead in anything...they SHOULD have kept Jeremy Brown, who in the long run, WOULD have saved Dowling ...Too bad they never gave him a REAL chance...sounds to me like someone IN Dowling College is looking for that school to fail miserably!!! Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone thru 4 President's in the last 6yrs. and they WOULD have kept Jeremy Brown, because of all he's done good in his past with Edinboro!!!
Dowling College's loss, I'm afraid!!!
