And yes, he would fire him in a second if he contributes to the University being viewed negatively. Bodnar also doesn't micromanage and will let Haslem do his job. And I can say with 100% accuracy that you have no direct knowledge into the recruitment and hiring of Bodnar.
Just more name-dropping by Hoops. According to him, he knows everyone important. I assure you that I know Bodnar at a more personal level than hoops does. And I will tell you that Seth would never pull a power play over Haslam when it comes to hiring decisions. He is not a micro-manager and allows his underlings to control their own world
You don't even know Bodnar, other than having been introduced to him, is my guess. After Immelt introduced us, I wrote a long memo of recommendation for him. Consulted with his wife to get it right and good. Sent it to my friends on the committee and regents. Good good feedback on it. I introduced Bodnar to Greg Gianforte before Bodnar was the president, at a pre-planned meeting at a Griz game. I represented Gianforte's company from the year of inception to the sale to Oracle, and attended all board meetings. I know Greg very well. I represented Chelsea B's startup company. Their kids went to the elementary where my wife taught, and she knew them from there. The recent chair of the Regents, who ia still on the Regents, is my good friend. Both Dartmouth and Native American and serve on a Dartmouth committee together.
