(April 23, 2009) Dear Skip: Mary Anderson has a brother named Joe Morgan who is the Vice President for Finance at Southern Miss. Many reports say she has threatened to go to him – and has gone to him – when she does not get her way. Without question she believes you will be sitting in her chair, i.e., her daddy’s chair. Be prepared for it. You and the dean may want to map out a strategy in advance so when it happens, and Nail is out of the office, you know you are green-lighted for action. Do not let her publications fool you. Ask her to publish some articles without her dissertation chairman; see what happens.

(August 11, 2009) Special Report The GS Cites Trap An Investigative Series on CoB Faculty Research Credentials Recent reports here at USMNEWS.net have examined Google Scholar cites to research conducted by various CoB faculty. As in past reports in this series, the data examined recently have been unadjusted GS cites. That is, there has been no accounting for self-cites in the overall data. This report addresses that issue by subtracting self-cites from the overall data, using a 6-Aug-09 GS cites search for ACC.
