Boycott UNA Donations?

Davis

By now you may know that Kevin Davis didn’t get the position of interim principal at the Muscle Shoals Career Academy. We heard that one of his qualifications was his uncle being a diesel mechanic…that and his having a lot of, ahem, bookkeeping experience from his former Athens post.

Lloyd Love Jr. of Florence has proposed that all private donations to UNA be ended until the university’s political clubs are no longer sponsored by faculty. All right, let’s say that it’s unethical for those on the state payroll to sponsor these political clubs; how are these clubs to be, for lack of a better word, monitored?

We can see the Chinese Communist Club with no oversight. Oh well, Bibb Graves Hall was an old building anyway; who cares if it was bombed into oblivion?

We recently mentioned an investigation into a Sheffield official. It seems there are two separate investigations of an elected official in the works in Lauderdale County. 2016 should be an interesting year.

From J. Redmon:

I have it on good authority that Alabama's state servers 'went down' last Thursday. Several state agencies, specifically DOT, were without internet/FAX capability. 'STAARS'-related? Who knows? You'd think, based on past dealings with Canadians, SOMEONE at the state government level would say 'Enough!'
