August 10, 2023: Quagmire

My name is Mike Sanderson, I entered New College in 1999.

I asked to comment on the, quote, business plan, because I was there in Tampa at the Board of Governors — the BoG — when they asked for it.

Richard Corcoran’s rambling confession that prompted that was really something and I submit that transcript for this meeting’s record.

I just got this business plan: Let me tell you something.

Bob Allen sold you a bill of goods. He told you this was going to be easy. He told you this was going to be a cakewalk.

Alums know 2023 was preceded by years of vitriolic Facebook arguments — but now it’s your reputations, and your movement’s reputation under threat.

At some point this board, the board of governors, the governor, are going to have to realize: New College is not the people who argued with Bob Allen on Facebook

To make a very Florida phrasing, Bob Allen led the BoG into a quagmire. See you at The Swamp.
