Here's a link to the UNT System org chart, which if you click, you will receive a message, ("...damaged and could not be repaired.").

UNT System Org Chart

I was able to open it. Here's a quick rundown: BOR -> Chancellor -> President

Only one more level above Jackson, apparently.

Thanks, I guess it's time to upgrade my acrobat reader. I found a link to an article announcing his hire, which was by the board of regents, so I don't think you'll get rid of him until you get new regents; I think people should feel free to question candidates for governor as to criteria for appointments as University Regents.

Appointment of Lee Jackson as Chancellor

I saw one thing in the organization chart that struck me as peculiar. The vice-president of finance at UNT does not report to the president of UNT but instead reports to the chancellor. The apparent reason is that he is vice-chancellor of finance for the UNT System. He's located in Dallas, not Denton.

Another controversy that I seem to recall was that Lee Jackson wanted to move the information systems personnel to Dallas to avoid hiring another staff at the System level.

Addressing the first point that the tuition increase was too high; her request was based on information available and was just that a request. Apparently it is up to the chancellor to recommend the amount of increase to the BOR. How can that be a firable offense even if she made a strong appeal to keep the increase as it was recommended. I don't know how the increase would compare with the tuitions at UT, A&M, Tech and Houston but we had previously been lower than any of those. Furthermore, it hasn't affected our enrollment.

As I recall, the reason Dr. Bataille gave for wanting to keep the IS in Denton was that it was tied to research. I agree that it shouldn't be moved because the majority of the work is in Denton. As chancellor he can get whatever information that he requests without duplicating staff or having them next door or under his thumb.

Lee Jackson may be a smart man but he is also a control freak and needs to be removed. Chancellors do not need to micromanage.

The chancellor would answer to the BOR, and the President answers to the Chancellor. I am not sure about Texas law. In Arkansas, the state constitution gives sole power to the BOR. I am not sure how it would work in Texas.

As you vote for gubernatorial candidates this spring, you might want to remember that Rick Perry appointed all of these regents.

Are Regents appointed for life or just to a specific term?

I just want to say that I feel that this UNT Dallas business is a terrible thing for UNT Denton. Guess where the system offices of the other D1A schools in Texas are. Texas in Austin, Texas A&M in College Station, Texas Tech in Lubbock, and UH is in Houston. We have ours in Dallas just like FCS Texas State has their system offices in Austin. For you conspiracy theorists, Jackson has his Masters of Public Admin from SMUt. I guess he wanted to move the University closer to his cronys. Does he really give a rat's (you know what) about OUR university? I seriously doubt it. He is collecting his fat cat paycheck livin it up with his Dallas SMUt pals. If we end up like ULL and ULM(I know they didn't start out with those names) and seriously start having to use the name UNT Denton or University of North Texas at Denton or just strictly Denton, I will disown this University and whatever sorryassed system it is a part of at that time.

There are nine BOR members. They are appointed by the Governor with the consent of the Senate. They serve staggered six year terms. The Governor also appoints a non-voting student regent each year.

So basically the President is like the Queen of England. Its more honorary?

OK, then when a Regent serves out their time and/or resigns, then who nominates the replacements to be submitted to the gov/senate for approval?

When a BOR member term expires that person can be reappointed or nominations are sent to the Governor who then appointments the next member.

Just a hypothetical/FYI question but what would be the steps in order to remove the UNT chancellor?

A no holds barred steel cage match !

I will volunteer to go head to head with a 1 Mr Jackson

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
