. I was pretty honest from my first day at the College that nothing was ever going to be the same. No more business as usual. No more head-in-the-sand. Hope is not an effective strategy in these situations. The only direction things go by themselves is downhill. Those days were over at Kendall.
More Quotes from Dr. Tullman:

The only way to lead people is to show them a vision of where youre headed and a path to get there together. These days people dont commit to companies or colleges, they commit to other people. Thats the name of the game.

In these situations, nothing is more important than communication. In every direction and to every audience or constituency. At the College, this meant staff, faculty, management, trustees, students, parents, regulators and even the public. But you cant do it all at once. You can do anything you want, but not everything you want.
Dr. Tullman
You get used to it after a while. Working with him is like changing the tires on a moving car. You come in each morning without a clue as to what the day will bring. All you know is that the day will fly by and there will be screaming. Its like having a picnic at the end of the runway at OHare.
