Indicted College President Teaches Again

And indicted college President returns to the college to teach, of all things, accounting.

Priscilla Slade, the former Texas Southern University president fired for spending school money on personal expenses, is teaching accounting courses on campus this semester.

Her return to the classroom comes four weeks after a Harris Country grand jury indicted Slade and three aides for allegedly paying for household furnishings and landscaping, among other things, for her benefit.

Weeks ago, I said that America faces an ethics crisis. People like Slade have no shame when it comes to these issues. Her colleagues should be drumming her out of the profession for these ethical lapses. Instead, she is welcomed back into the fold like nothing happened. It is shameful what America has become.
