Omg so happy, all of our problems are solved.
We've done it. We've done it!!!
Oh by the way Michael Sam our recently come out gay African American poster child stated he never had a racial incident on campus. How in the frick is that possible with this rampant culture I am hearing about?!?!?!
Why would Michael Sam not be targeted with those 2 groups associated to his name, both gay and aa. So unusual, he has to be lieing, but why though?!?!?

Tweets are conflicting.
One says he has resigned. Another say he is taking a different role.
I hope he stays involved with athletics at Mizzou.

your right...looks like "new role" is correct. Probably to prevent the massive buyout his contract has.

Loftin was more from the faculty than the 1950 kids, he had the no confidence vote last week then 9 deans sent a letter wanting him out today. Hopefully he stays involved with the sports side, I really like him in that role, I don't know anything about him as far as the academic side.

Also, effective January 1, 2016, Chancellor R. Bowen Loftin will transition into director for research facility development. In his new role, Loftin will be involved in leading MU’s efforts to construct new facilities and renovate current facilities to meet the university’s research needs.
Said Cupps, “The university would like to thank Dr. Loftin for his services as chancellor and looks forward to his work in his new role.”
Hank Foley, MU senior vice chancellor for research and graduate studies and current UM System executive vice president for academic affairs, research and economic development has been appointed interim chancellor for the MU campus. An interim system president will be announced as soon as possible.
Loftin has massive buyout...even bigger than his A&M one...which was largest in history for a president.

New initiatives
“The board of curators will not tolerate hateful activities on our campuses – period,” said Cupps. “We are taking additional measures beginning today to ensure that our campuses are free of acts of hatred, so that our campuses all embody a culture of respect.”
Today the board announced a series of initiatives to be implemented over the next 90 days to address the racial climate on its campuses, including:
A first-ever Chief Diversity, Inclusion and Equity Officer will be appointed for the UM System. Accountability and metrics will be established for the position going forward;
A full review will be initiated of all UM System policies as they relate to staff and student conduct;
Additional support will be provided for students, faculty and staff who have experienced discrimination and disparate treatment.
Additional support will be provided for the hiring and retention of diverse faculty and staff;
In addition, the board announced its plan to ensure effective next steps through an open communication process that invites perspective from across the system. These steps are to:
Create a diversity, inclusion and equity task force to develop both a short- and long-term strategy, plan and metrics for the UM System based on an inventory and audit of current programs, policies and practices.
Establish campus-based task forces to develop diversity, inclusion and equity strategies, plans and metrics.
Ensure that each UM System campus has a Chief Diversity, Inclusion and Equity Officer reporting to the chancellor;
Launch a diversity, inclusion and equity leadership training and development education program, which includes the board of curators, president and administrative leadership, followed by broader faculty and staff training.
Specifically, on the MU campus:
There is a process in place to identify external diversity, inclusion and equity consultants to conduct a comprehensive assessment of diversity and inclusion efforts on campus.
There will be mandatory diversity, inclusion and equity training for all faculty, staff and future incoming students.
We will continue the comprehensive review of student mental health services to ensure that students are referred to the most appropriate resources for their needs.

He's gone. They're just pushing his buyout to next year. This is like when Alden took a teaching position. Nothing will ever actually be done in that new role.

My dad is so glad he retired.

It's going to be a trend - I predict that in the next 3-5 years, 90% of schools will have a similar position.
