Busta State University


Lester Lefton, president of Kent State University, is selfish. He is voluntarily sequestered from the students he serves. In general, he pretty much sucks.

According to Wikipedia:

"Lefton has come under scrutiny for his expense accounts charged to the university. Between July 2006 and July 2007 Lefton expensed $36,741.93 on entertainment and $44,249.34 on travel. In a Sep 26, 2007 editorial in the Akron Beacon Journal Lefton was criticized for extensive travel to Europe a portion of which which was charged to the University, as well as the hiring of two vice presidents during a time when university tuition and fees increased for students. The result of his travel was millions of dollars of donations coming to the University."

In other words, Lester Lefton is a Busta.

Only a true busta edits his own Wikipedia page to create a section titled "Popular" (because no one save his mother could possibly hold this to be true):

"Lefton is popular with students and faculty. A regular at football and basketball games, Lefton usually eats lunch at the student cafeteria,* and he is recognized as a staunch advocate for student concerns. He has put forth a vision for excellence for the university and committed the institution to be a magnet for high achieving students and faculty. A successful fund-raiser, Lefton's vision of putting excellence into action has resonated well with alumni as well as students and faculty."

*He sometimes ventures from his posh, multi-million dollar custom office to visit Quizno's, making sure to look straight ahead at all times and to pretend not to notice students or anyone else who might bother him or say hello.

Plus, let's face it, his name sounds like a child molester's.
