The faculty of West Virginia University voted for no confidence in President E. Gordon Gee, citing that Gee’s poor leadership helped cause the institution's massive budget shortfall.
University faculty approved a symbolic motion on Wednesday expressing no confidence in President E. Gordon Gee as the university addresses a $45 million budget shortfall.
The faculty resolution on Gee said what it called his administration's poor planning, faulty decision making and financial mismanagement has significantly contributed to the crisis. It called into question Gee’s"ability to responsibly, honestly and effectively lead, facilitate and participate in decision making.""I must say that if I had done all of those things, I’d probably vote no confidence myself," Gee told the faculty prior to the vote.
The university’s faculty assembly later passed a second motion calling for WVU to freeze ongoing academic program and faculty cuts. West Virginia University President E.
