University presidents are not to be taken seriously. They are no longer current versions of Hutchins, Conant or Brewster. They are, as an article years ago in TNR described them,"small men on campus." (Or small women.) On important issues, they make fools of themselves (Sunmmers, Bollinger), and they try not go near them in the first place. They raise money and fire athletic coaches whose "programs" aren't successful.
