And we thought Alabama's two year system had problems.
Ousted TSU President Priscilla Slade racked up a $100,000 bar tab at Scott Gertner's Skybar and Grille during her tenure and stuck Texas Southern University with the bill, prosecutors said Wednesday. Slade is accused of spending more than $500,000 of the school's money on the following:
- personal expenses such as home renovations, drapes and bedding.
- two meals a day for herself and her staff at expensive restaurants, nights of drinking out and tickets for professional sports games.
- travel to Rome, Costa Rica and Maine.
- bottles of Far Niente $100 each, with her friends and staff at expensive bars
Her attorney said Slade's purchases were reasonable and necessary to court donors and improve the university's image.Everybody is quick to point out extravagant CEO spending,let's see if Higher Ed does the same.
