He came from there, and obviously the Dean position is a step up in pay. I doubt seriously campus carry had anything to do with it, but like any typical liberal, he wants to politicize the situation as much as he can.
He was the Dean of the School here. It's a lateral move at best.

Some can fool the young and willing journalists, but most of us seasoned folks see through statements of convenience.
The story was dated yesterday and speaks of him becoming Dean this July. It seems to be roughly concurrent with news that he is leaving UT to become Dean in PA. What is misrepresented?
Derive from all the possible permutations of this occurance and perhaps a similar opinion will coalesce for you. I did state that it was my formed opinion and insinuated that journalists and the young might color it a differnet way.
Say what?

I've been reading the English language for ~67 years, very avidly, and for a living, and it is not very often I encounter something I do not understand at all.

Did you misunderstand something I read?
