With regard to the allegations of NSU board members concerning the quality of the local school systems, consideration should be given to the saying that when you point a finger at someone, you are pointing three fingers back at yourself.
Attention and contemplation should be directed to the large number of school-system graduates who successfully pursue undergraduate and graduate degrees from other colleges and universities.
Acceptance of responsibility seems to be diminishing throughout society, and the evasion of accountability by the apparent leadership of NSU is an example of an all-too-typical attitude that blames failure or lack of performance on someone else.
