Chapter 2525: Rustling Down (20)
The management system of American universities is roughly as follows: the school has a board of directors, which in theory is a trustee entrusted by the founder of the school, but now it has basically developed into the actual person in charge.
The rules for electing the board of directors are different for each school, but most of them are still related to money. Whoever pays more money can occupy a seat, but there is no lack of some long-standing university boards of directors directly produced by civil election.
The rules of Cat Getan University's board of directors are very simple, which is to arrange the board seats according to the amount of money sponsored. There are eight directors in total and one chairman. The current chairman is Bruce Wei En.
The board of directors will hire a professional manager, just like the board of directors of a company hires a president. This professional manager is the principal. When Principal Shedron was so afraid of Bruce, it was because he knew that he would eventually become the chairman sooner or later. If he offended him, he would definitely be fired.
Major affairs in the school are decided by the board of directors, including the most basic articles of association and school rules, while the details of daily management are decided and arranged by the principal leading the government department.
Now it is that the school's chairman and the board of directors have never mentioned the matter of hiring a principal, which has led to the fact that most of the daily management affairs of the school are looked at by the government department.
The faculty and staff of the government department are not all from management backgrounds. Many are transferred or related households. Some with professional backgrounds don't reach the title of professional manager, at most they have learned a little management.
So for a long time, the management of Cat Getan University has been relatively chaotic. Take this move as an example. Logically speaking, shouldn't someone be sent to stare at it when the new campus hasn't been built, and mention it if there is anything wrong?
But at that time, the school was already having a headache managing the tourists entering the campus and the students who insisted on going out to play, and couldn't stare at the decoration progress of the new campus at all.
This led to the fact that the whole school had to move, only to find that this didn't work and that wasn't right, and they had to ask people to repair it again. Waiting for more time was one thing, but the key was to spend more money.
And it was very unlucky to encounter the Great Depression, making the already poor economic situation worse.
In this day and age, there is no surplus food in the landlord's house, and a professional manager with sufficient ability can restore the chaotic management situation, making Cat Getan University have a better time in difficult days.
Shiler thought while eating dinner. He guessed that it might be that Vincent learned about his previous grievances with the principal from some old employees, and felt that Cat Getan University still had his own problems without a principal, so he tried to persuade himself.
Shiler couldn't say that this matter had nothing to do with him, but he really hated someone using rules and regulations to change his regular life. No matter whether those rules and regulations were reasonable or not, he just didn't want to change the rules.
At that time, Shiler almost didn't accept any changes, and lived every day without accidents exactly the same, which could provide him with great security. Bruce might understand this, so he hadn't hired a new principal all along.
But now it seems that this principal must be hired. In addition to the fact that Shiler has begun to actively change, if there is no professional management personnel to manage the school, the economic situation will get worse and worse, and it will eventually change everyone's regular life. This salary cut is a good example.
Shiler wasn't sure if Bruce was in Cat Getan now, so he made a phone call and learned that Bruce was still in Washington, mainly taking measures to save the market with that group of politicians.
After stating his opinion, Bruce didn't say much, only saying that he would call the board of directors. However, he couldn't determine the candidate, and it still depended on the board of directors.
Shiler could hear that Bruce was very busy, but this was normal. When the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. The Wei En Group is the highest one. Even if the series of measures taken by Washington now are useless, Bruce Wei En must be present. He is the confidence of the market.
After telling Vincent the news that there would be a new principal, this gold-medal coach finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then this news soon spread throughout the school. Some old employees who had been teaching longer than Shiler or about the same as Shiler were amazed at this professor's change.
However, they indeed didn't have a good impression of the last principal. This professor belonged to the typical villain in the early days of Cat Getan. He was incompetent but addicted to it, didn't know how to engage in it but blindly engaged in it. It was just that others didn't have Shiler's deterrent power, so they dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak most of the time.
The faculty and staff were also worried that another Shedron would be brought in, adding a burden to the already meager income of the faculty and staff, so they were all side-knocking, wanting to know who the board of directors would find.
Shiler wasn't very worried. There were many professional managers in this world. Although many jumped off Wall Street before, weren't there still many left living in survival? Now go to Metropolis and turn around on the bank street. Any homeless person is a double master of finance and business management. Let alone salary, just give a bite to eat, and can't find a good one?
When Shiler returned to his new house, Raven had already returned. As soon as Shiler met Raven, he was stunned.
Raven had already taken off the black robe and changed into the simplest sweatshirt and jeans. The red long hair was tied into a ponytail behind her head. At this time, she was sitting on the sofa watching TV.
Seeing Shiler come back, she stood up, backed her hands behind her back somewhat unnaturally, and just wanted to speak, Shiler said, "Did you go out?"
"Yes, I went... I went to find Zatanna."
"You almost wrote 'I am lying' on your face, Miss. I assume you know I am a psychology professor."
"Yes, I went out, but I didn't cause trouble. I'm sorry."
"This is not a prison. You can go out. I'm just a bit curious about what you did this afternoon. You look like you have changed a lot."
Raven tilted her head, lowered her eyelids, and said, "I went to work."
"This sentence is actually not a lie," Shiler looked at Raven somewhat surprisingly and said, "Is the work in the coffee shop so suitable for you? You look like you just broke out of the shell."
"So is it a good change?" Raven asked.
"Of course, your whole person is not so tense, and you have relaxed a lot. In my opinion, emotions have also been channeled a lot. If you continue like this, losing control will no longer be a problem one day."
"Really?!" Raven finally revealed a bit of surprised emotion, but it was still collected back soon.
"Well, actually I went out to move with that crocodile man, my meaning is the moving worker who moved for you this afternoon. He hired me to use telekinesis to help him work. We moved five houses this afternoon, and every family gave very generous tips, and I earned more than 100 US dollars."
Now it was Shiler's turn to be unnatural. He looked at Raven with slightly widened eyes and said, "You earned more than 100 US dollars?"
"Yes, counting the tips, but I spent more than 20, because Wei Lun said I couldn't always wear that robe, looking like a terrorist or some evil mage. He took me to the clothing store he went to before to buy clothes. Is it okay?"
Shiler examined her, nodded, and said, "I think it's not bad, but this should be men's clothing, right?"
"Yes, Wei Lun only knows men's clothing stores. Perhaps I can ask Zatanna where she buys clothes, but I don't think she will approve of me running around," Raven was a bit lost.
"If your power doesn't lose control, and you have money, then you can go shopping," Shiler said. "I will tell Zatanna that this is good for you to control your power."
"Really?!" Raven finally revealed a smile again, which was a bit uncontrollable. She said, "We passed a very prosperous commercial street when driving, I..."
"You can go and see, but the things there are very expensive," Shiler put down the umbrella, took off his suit jacket and hung it on the coat rack, and said, "That is a shopping street specially built for tourists. 100 US dollars will disappear in an instant there, but Wei Lun shouldn't take you to such an expensive store. Did your 20 US dollars only buy one set of clothes?"
"Of course not, I also bought a lot of food," Raven turned and walked to the kitchen, pulled open the cupboard and refrigerator storing food below, and said, "If I want to work in the future, I have to try to make breakfast myself. Wei Lun taught me some today, perhaps I can try tomorrow morning."
Shiler had a bad premonition. He stood in place, ignoring Raven's invitation to come and see the ingredients, but looked at Raven and asked, "Which vegetables did you buy?"
"Parsley, thyme, dill, kale, beets, broccoli..."
"Stop, don't say it anymore. Where is the broccoli?"
"In the refrigerator, what's wrong?"
Shiler opened his mouth, recited "ignorance is not guilty," "she is not an adult yet," "cannot destroy the new house decoration" a thousand times in his heart, but finally said, "You take the broccoli out and throw it away, or throw it away with the refrigerator."
"Don't you like broccoli?" Raven asked somewhat puzzled, "Actually, I haven't eaten this thing either. It looks a bit strange."
Raven even took out the broccoli placed in the refrigerator and turned it over in her hand. Shiler took a deep breath and retreated to the door. He said, "I am allergic to broccoli. You throw it away quickly!"
With a whoosh, the broccoli disappeared. Raven opened her mouth wide and said, "Sorry, I really didn't know! Are you okay?!"
Shiler took a long breath and asked, "Where did you throw it?"
"Decomposed it with magic. The taste is indeed not very good. I won't buy it again in the future," Raven shook her head, looking very dissatisfied, and curled her lips, saying, "It cost me 30 cents."
Shiler breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Believe me, your decision is correct. This thing doesn't taste good at all, and it's very expensive."
After speaking, he looked at the refrigerator that had stored broccoli somewhat hesitantly. Raven followed his line of sight to the refrigerator and said, "You won't really intend to throw the refrigerator away, right? I saw the same model of this refrigerator when moving today. I heard it was customized in Germany and cost more than 3,000 US dollars."
Shiler was silent. He actually liked this luxury double-door refrigerator very much. Besides the powerful fresh-keeping function in the upper area, the freezing area in the lower area had a large space and could put a lot of ingredients, which was unanimously praised by all Shilers.
Well, it seems that ordinary people don't have so much hypocritical space, and broccoli won't spread through the air, but he must clean the refrigerator well.
Damn it, Shiler rubbed his temples. He was actually still in this house where broccoli had appeared a few minutes ago, and even intended to clean the refrigerator that had just stored broccoli.
"Ah! I have to check if there are any crumbs or something on this layer, in case you are allergic," Raven said and went to clean the refrigerator.
Shiler breathed a sigh of relief completely. Recalling the move of Merkel knocking down a towering broccoli to give himself a critical hit, he now looked at Raven, who had only bought a small broccoli and knew how to clean the refrigerator, and felt that she was beautiful. ===== CHAPTER 2526 =====
