Soon after my father’s death, my late husband and I accepted an invitation to be on the Dowling College Board of Trustees. Although I have not retained records of our association with the college, I remember well that, after only a couple of years as trustees, we both resigned, as we did not want to be parties to what we felt was mismanagement by the board.
I know that my father would be saddened and dismayed by the events that led to Dowling’s shutdown. I am as well.
