'26 PSU BOT Alumni-Elected Trustee Ballots
- Thread starter G3624
- Start date
Hysterical in what way? Do you think the way our BOT is run is hysterical? I certainly don't.
The entire PSU BOT is comprised of hoes.
Anyone supporting this guy running or in charge of anything except his own interests is hysterical. Mr coat tails. Mr nepotism.
The whole deal is a crock of shiit- why bother?
My only vote is a write-in vote
for Barry Fenchak. I stand on principle!

Why would anyone vote for Krieger--she never shows up.
Voting for DeRenzo and Keller. I voted for Krieger previously and while I didn't expect much, I did expect her to go to at least one meeting.
The Nittany Lion's cat box needs to be changed yet again, as we had to do in 2012-2014 when we voted out those who fired and scapegoated Coach Paterno; some of them took themselves out by not running for reelection.

"Trustees Delligatti, Black, Robert Beard, Robert Fenza, Chris Hoffman, Ali Krieger, Nicholas Rowland and Mary Lee Schneider voted in favor of deeming Fenchak unqualified and to not put his name on the ballot. Paterno voted against the motion."
I don't recall any of us asking for her opinion on this matter. Maybe she would be better suited to a Board-appointed position because she should clearly not represent us. Lubrano also deserves another term but he is not running.
As there are only four people running, I think we have to vote for Keller and DeRenzo sight unseen, along with Paterno whom we want, to ensure that Krieger is not reelected. This is the opposite of the situation in which we don't want to dilute our vote for the person we want; it's important to not dilute our vote against the one we don't want.

We also know that Ali Krieger voted to keep Barry Fenchak off the Board. https://www.centredaily.com/news/local/education/penn-state/article300749889.html

See the attachment relating to the ethics of the ENTIRE Board of Trustees, as constituted in March 2012, less one honorable exception who distanced himself from the conduct in question. Not much seems to have changed and they got rid of Fenchak for challenging their behavior. I think they also wanted to get rid of Lubrano for the same reason, but were unable to do so.

FWIW: Lubrano is term-limited this year - and can't run again.
Also, former Chair Matt Schuyler is ineligible for another term (due to term limits). His position, of course, gets APPOINTED, not elected. Let's see what happens there (his current term also expires this year)
I think she’s the gold standard for an alumni elected trustee according to the rest of the BOT!
Is it JayPa that fails, or is the system stacked against him - or any other alumni trustee- winning?
It's both...the system is stacked against him but he makes no effort to try to work within the system. Same reason Lubrano was a waste. They're more focused on praise than getting results.
Lubrano and Paterno are not the problems. The rest of the Board is the problem. Similarly, in 2012, one Trustee (Clemens) distanced himself from the Board's decision to scapegoat Joe Paterno and then lie about its reasons for firing him, as proven subsequently by sworn testimony from Masser (I posted a screenshot) and, to a lesser degree, Frazier.
I can't speak for the US Military Academy but I believe, according to its Honor Code, the entire Board as constituted in March 2012 would have been expelled for lying, or tolerating those who do, with Clemens as the sole exception. I recall a short story about an English school, in which the master expected the students to study, but they instead played a game with walnuts, the intention being to shatter the opponent's walnut. The master returns to the classroom to find walnut shells all over the place, and demands that the boys surrender their surviving walnuts. One does, and it's a prize one that has won every match. The master takes it from him, but then proclaims that the game cannot be played by only one person. The entire group, minus the boy who admitted what he did, is compelled to stay after school as punishment. I can't find it online, though. This is pretty much the same situation.
Update: the game is conkers, and it's played with chestnuts and not walnuts. I still can't find the story, though.

Guessing that if tallied, you'd find that Jay voted with the Board far more than against it. So what kind of results were you otherwise expecting him to achieve by "working within the system?"
Find nothing compelling about the first-time candidates. Krieger is such a minus-mind that she does the Board a service by not showing up. Jay is a jerk, but I might vote for him simply because he pisses the rest of the Board off.
Other Board members would profit by her example. Penn State might be better if none of them showed up.
Recent Board meeting.

You're incorrect as proven by you immediately making it about Joe. Neither Jay nor Lubrano were on the.board then. You're just deflecting from current issues and focused on the past which is the same issue they have.
That's fine. Those two are a no win situation. Neither wants to improve things. They just want attention. Especially Jay.
