Untitled[edit]

Rationale for POV Check: This entire article reads like PR fluffery with a shot of self/intern-written biography. Ex: "ABOR has launched a very ambitious and forward thinking Enterprise Initiative [...] This effort will reshape the way higher education is delivered in Arizona, and has the potential to be a model for public universities across the country." Designations such as "leading expert in gender physiology" might theoretically be true, but are completely unsupported in this case, like much of the article.

The effusive paragraphs about the 'Transformation Plan' notably omits any mention of the strong criticism it drew from faculty, as mentioned by the Tuscon Sentinel and the Daily Wildcat (DW 2).

The revision history is suspicious too, with User:Trcrock only making edits to the 'Meredith Hay' article, in 2.5 years as an account-holder.

2601:500:8501:20E0:9D6:E43B:51D3:A71D (talk) 19:33, 3 September 2020 (UTC) Updated with references on faculty actions and reactions that caused Hay's outster as provost. I note that some fluff language is still here after 9 years and is not cited. Removed one npov word, and requested citations[reply]
