Cofer Secretly Applies For Another Job Away From North Monroe

BREAKING NEWS-COFER SECRETLY APPLIES TO BE COMMISIONER OF EDUCATION IN MISSISSIPPI

Cofer has done it again, applied for yet another job in higher education, commissioner of education in Mississippi. He probably only told one person in north Monroe that he had applied, the chairman of the University Foundation whose step-son he has given a $100,000 plus salary while he is dismissing tenured faculty left and right. And guess what, he didn’t get the job. Cofer is now 0-3 in getting jobs away from north Monroe.

One little fact has leaked out about his application. Seems a retired Mississippi State University business professor showed up to talk with decision makers about Cofer getting the job and told them how Cofer had tried to use political influence to get his doctorate in business from Mississippi State. He didn’t get it though. He’s got and EdD from University of Arkansas Little Rock.

Oh, why did he tell the Chairmn of the University Foundation what he was up to, why so that chairman could go out and get him some more money from the Foundation account. And for what? Cofer promised when he got his current job he would increase enrollment to 10,000; it’s 8754 and ever falling; and he promised a 60% graduation rate. The American Enterprise Institute reports that his school has a graduation rate of 32%.
