“Fired for doing his job”

That is how the American Council of Trustees and Alumni (ACTA) views Dartmouth College’s decision to boot Todd Zywicki off its board of trustees. ACTA’s president, Anne Neal, writes:

What is unique about Zywicki is. . .that (unlike so many other trustees) he has been willing to raise problems openly and to seek solutions. It is a terrible shame that his reward for that — that is, for doing his job — is to be denied a second term.

Exactly.
