Greetings I am coming to you (a)live...lol. Wanted to rap to yall real quick about some craziness das been goin down lately. I am a proud alumnus of North Carolina State University(gooo pack!!) but we have come under some fire lately. I am sure you have heard(if not imma tell ya) the resignation of NCSUs chancellor James Oblinger and the firing of former lady(gov) Mary Easley.
Here is how it all went down(like I was there right..lol) : Mary Easley was working at the Provost Office at NCState around 2005. NCSU board chairman McQueen Campbell and James Oblinger(now former chancellor) hired Mary Easley on a 3 yr contract in 2005 reported to be $80,000/yr then got a 5 yr deal for about $850,000. She also had an annual increase of 88% annual pay raise for her job as executive-in-residence at NCSU which violates NCSU policy(dammit gurl). But that is not even the crazy part it was found out that top-level execs got her the job at NCSU including Mike Easley himself!! This is obvious breach of policy yet to mention integrity of the university. UNC System President Erskine Bowles has since told Oblinger to resign and fired Mary Easley.
The Easleys have been no stranger to frivolous spending. There are already under investigation regarding use of taxpayer money to go on trips. I don't know what the hell she did at State to warrant such a payout. I believe it was the name; her husband was the governor! That still doesn't condone the seedy hiring process and the large payout. Look, North Carolina is one of the poorer states in the country so why the hell you gonna pay her all that money for??? I am shamed by the actions of others at my school and I hope we can turn things around. But you know shyt like this happens all the time partly because there is no real regulations and also because money talks and bullshyt floats by. We the people need to be MORE self-evident....
