TYLER
(April 9, 2008) Special Report Was Harold Doty Fired by USM? His Own Words and Behavior Say He Was The official
line from USM on 9-April-07, 10-April-07 and thereafter was and has been that former CoB Dean, Harold Doty,
resigned from the position on 9-April-07. Despite such proclamations from the top execs at USM, a recent report
published here at USMNEWS.NET that contains a more complete text of EFIB Chair George Carter’s public
denigration of Doty was used in a 31st & Pearl column to make a quite convincing case that Doty was instead fired.
(April 22, 2008) CoB News, 22 April 2008 Covers Boy -- An Opinion from Duane Cobb Reporters at USMNEWS.NET
have been examining the titles of some of the scholarly books that make mention of former CoB Dean, and current
professor of management, Harold Doty's academic research. It's amazing just what some of these books are called.
Take for instance:
(April 29, 2008) GH Chatter Some CoBers are discussing the latest signals from former CoB Dean Harold Doty. For
one, it appears that Doty is teaching a full summer load this year. Do the Doty's need the cash? Seems so. Second,
there is some indication that Doty is angling to supplant David Duhon as Chair of MGT & MKT for 2008-09.
(May 1, 2008) Those (Dotys) Whom CoB Administrators Hath Joined Together (on the Cob Payroll) Let No Man
(Dissenter) Put Asunder The prevalence of spousal hires in the CoB has been a subject of interest to CoB faculty for
many years. The recent departures of Stephen (FIN) and Dana Haggard (MGT), to Missouri State University, and
Barry (MKT) and Laurie Babin (MKT), to Louisiana Tech University and University of Louisiana – Monroe,
respectively, bring this subject back to the forefront. This report examines what remains of the CoB’s spousal duos
with these two sets of departures.
(May 5, 2008) CoB Flashback: September 2006 Join us as we flash back to September 2006, when former CoB dean
Harold Doty was facing yet another crucial decision, this time regarding the CoB’s email server.
(May 12, 2008) GH Chatter Readers of USMNEWS.NET are quite familiar with the fact that former CoB Dean, Harold
Doty, has failed on numerous attempts to secure employment elsewhere. Now stories are circulating that Doty may
no longer be interested in leaving the CoB, mainly because of stronger familial ties to the Pine Belt now than existed
before. Doty's younger children are more ensconced in the Oak Grove Schools, and Doty and wife Susan are now
grandparents. So, leaving the area will mean uprooting their younger children and (potentially) leaving behind a
grandchild.
