I am a junior at Carroll College. I'm a very active student on campus, have been President of two award-winning student organizations, and have brought several noteworthy guests to our small and historic campus.

Despite his poise and ability to articulte (which I'm sure was demonstrated in his visit to UWEC), I can honestly say I've never encountered anyone in a Student Affairs role as rude and condescending as he is. What we are getting here at Carroll, in my opinion and in the opinion of several other stakeholders on campus, are unfulfilled promises and a Student Affairs office that offers nothing but disincentives for individual student efforts. While Dr. Limas' short tenure at Carroll has given rise to an increased number of hoops to jump through, it has not been balanced with an increase in accessibility and student opportunity.

I wish my friends over at Eau Claire the best of luck in your search for a new Vice Chancellor, but I urge you to closely examine this particular candidate's "off paper" credentials.
