I’d imagine she was nudged out after her horrible handling

of the Lauren Mccluskey tragedy. Her publicly proclaiming that the university wasn’t at fault and it “could not have been prevented” cost the U a ton in PR and lawsuit money.

The parents weren’t going to sue the university until she said that.

I don't understand this move at all. Strada is not part of the pac-12

Not sufficiently woke? Maybe they can hire Kaepernick to take her place.

The last 3 presidents at Utah had some scandal tied to them

She should have left two years ago, and can she take the MBB staff with her?

The Lueck murder had nothing to do with the U other than the fact she was

True but the publicity along with McCluskey murder created a perception, right

The Lueck murder had a lot less to the with the university

Why did BLM bother her?

Well caught-1) it was neighbors and 2) inconvenienced. She's presumed unbothered

I was asking why BLM would go to her house/neighborhood?

because of white privilege or not being woke. Do they need a reason?

She actually never had a commitable offer to be their president
