Faculty raise concerns about cronyism at OU
Quote:Apart from the curriculum changes, several professors said they believed that Boren, who left the Senate in 1994 to become president of the university, has already handpicked those he wants to lead the university after he leaves. Among them are Kyle Harper, an associate professor in the department of classics and letters who in December was promoted to senior vice provost, and Joseph Harroz Jr., dean of the College of Law. Harroz is rumored to be Boren’s candidate for president.
Harper graduated from Oklahoma in 2001 and returned in 2007 after receiving his Ph.D. from Harvard University. He was named the director of the Institute for the American Constitutional Heritage when it was established in 2009. Harroz served as Boren’s legislative director and legal counsel in the Senate.
They are much younger and would likely not buck State political influence. That could bode well for us.
