So thanks to gentle persuasion from the genteel chancellor, the university system now is looking for presidents for its two major institutions. As Jim Rogers leads the search for replacements for John Lilley and Carol Harter, neither of whom he wanted in their jobs, one wag had a suggestion. Perhaps the Clark County School Board folks could form a committee, call it the Committee for a Better Nevada, and come up with recommendations on who would make fine replacements for Harter and Lilley. Then, after putting forth their candidate, the committee members could follow the chancellor to the interviews and ask questions of the contenders. Make sense?
