Bill Wulf's Resignation Letter

Comp. Sci. Prof. William Wulf’s resignation letter

BY on June 19, 2012

Below is a resignation letter submitted [to the Cavalier Daily] this morning by Computer Science Prof. William Wulf:

Dean and Interim President Zeithaml,

By this email I am submitting my resignation, effective immediately. I do not wish to be associated with an institution being as badly run as the current UVa. A BOV that so poorly understands UVa, and academic culture more generally, is going to make a lot more dumb decisions, so the University is headed for disaster, and I don’t want to be any part of that. And, frankly, I think you should be ashamed to be party to this debacle!

Here are some things you can do with Gists in GistBox.
// Use Gists to store code you would like to remember later on
console.log(window); // log the "window" object to the console
