What could be better than getting rid of the witch?

“Ding dong, the witch is dead” was the chant throughout Columbus a year ago as Karen A Hole brook announced her “resignation” from OSU.  Then today the good news came:

“E. Gordon Gee will be the next president of Ohio State University…During his seven years at OSU, the university started some of its largest building projects, including the $93 million Schottenstein Center, $92 million Fisher College of Business and an $80 million renovation of Ohio Stadium. Gee also trimmed enrollment from 50,000 to 48,000, worked to attract and keep better students, and pushed to increase state funding for colleges.”

Most of all Gee embraced football, tailgate parties, and the tradition of Ohio State.  Gee is beloved and will be welcomed with ovation after ovation.  Much better than the rousing boos typically reserverd for A Hole brook.
