About This Blog

Dare to Dissemble is my little online ranting place, where I air my thoughts about the ridiculous state of affairs at the University of Alberta--a formerly strong public institution with tons of potential being driven into the ground by inept governance and irresponsible government funding policies. Comments are welcome, but not expected. Like most blogs on the internet, this one languishes in obscurity and is read for the most part by its proprietor.

Great Work, If You Can Get It

An anonymous commenter over at Whither the U of A has pointed out that President Samarasekera is on the Board of Directors for ScotiaBank.  This "supplementary professional activity" nets her something on the order of $170K per year.  This raises certain questions as to her understanding of the economic realities of your typical rank-and-file academic.  There is no doubt that the University President profession is quite a lucrative racket.
