Donor withdraws $3 million gift after regent calls him "bully and tyrant"
The Winston-Salem Journal has a great story about a sensitive donor who didn't take kindly to a negative job review:
The chancellor of Nevada’s higher-education system says that he and his family will no longer consider donating $3 million to one of its schools after a regent’s negative comments in his job evaluation.The donor said he didn't feel like giving money after receiving the "flogging."
In his written evaluation June 22, regent Ron Knecht wrote that John Rogers “is known primarily as a self-absorbed, self-indulgent bully and tyrant, given to rashly going off at little or no provocation.”
