Our long districtular nightmare will soon be over
Well, it's June, and that means it's the last month of Raghu P. Mathur's reign (2002-2010) as chancellor of the South Orange County Community College District.
If you include his equally celebrated reign as president of Irvine Valley College (1997-2002), we're talking thirteen years of abject reignery.
To paraphrase President Ford, "our long districtular nightmare will soon be over." Well, no. Not until Fuentes is gone. But part of it will be over. The Mathur part. Unless he leaves some mystery deposits.
I'm counting the days. The hours, even.
Hey, believe it or not, we at DtB are as sentimental as the next guy—er, blog. And so we'll be posting remembrances, good wishes, equivoques, and denunciations for the Goo all month long.
Unless we get tired of it. Then we'll stop.
Join us!
P.S.: I thought of something. Raghu, we're really gonna miss you when you're gone. You know what I mean. It just won't be the same!
Thinking about that, it occurred to me that you should do something like Richard Nixon's "last press conference." Check it out:

Yeah, he's been like a districtular cancer!
Rat Bastard, Rat Bastard, Rat Bastard, Rat Bastard, Rat Bastard. That's all I've got to say.
"abject reignery?" Shouldn't that be abject REIGNAGE?
Maybe, but, as regular readers know, I often use BauerSpeak, inventing zany terms. Is "reignage" a fake word in that spirit? Is it a fake word at all? Or are you saying that it is the correct word? "Reignery" is supposed to be a fake word modelled after such words as "burglary."
