It's Drinking Time!

From the Chronicle of Higher Education:

The trial of Priscilla D. Slade, who was fired last year as Texas Southern University’s president, is in full swing. Ms. Slade, who led the financially troubled university from 1999 to 2006, is accused of misspending more than $500,000 in university money on personal expenses during her tenure.

The highlights, as alleged by prosecutors and reported by the Houston Chronicle, include:

$40,000 for a 25-place china set from Neiman Marcus.

$100,000 for a total bar tab at Scott Gertner’s Skybar & Grille, which calls itself a “sexy penthouse nightclub” on its Web site.

If she's acquitted, she should consider Dartmouth for her next posting.
