Waded knows it, but will continue to sell a false and unsustainable bill of goods to the BOR so she can get more money for her lemonade stand the next year. The BOR, of course, will eat it up because they want it off their desk with the least amount of thought possible so they can make their 12:30 tee times and the early bird specials at Texas Roadhouse. So, Waded gets the budget, the papers print the stories, the kids follow each other trying to be the next Casey Jones, and poof. It’s gone. Waded retires and gets a statue for increasing enrollment, when basically all she did was convince a bunch of innocent kids that telegraph operation was a viable long term career choice whilst converting MSU into a for-profit institution.

Two phrases not typically seen together! :lol:
