The University of Michigan has fired its $927,000-a-year president after his emails revealed he was having an affair with a female subordinate.Mark Schlissel, 64, was informed in a letter on Saturday that he was being fired from the role he has held since July 2014.Schlissel - a married father of four - and his lover, who has not been identified, exchanged emails on their work email addresses which were 'inconsistent with promoting the dignity and reputation of the university', the regents of the university wrote. It is unclear how the affair came to the attention of college bosses.

$927,000 per year! For a university president? Another reason tuitions need to be reined in. Unbelievable.

He must be a democrat, do as I say....not as I do. What an idiot to do something that stupid to lose such a high paying job. Book smart; common sense stupid.

Dude violated the first rule of relationships: Never dip your pen in company ink. That this clown got caught up in his own rules and cost himself a million dollar job is just the icing on the cake.

Or at least read your monthly financial statement, #1. That’s a big chunk of change to lose for a bit of slap and tickle. I wonder what Mrs. University President has to say.

$927,000 a year could hire a lot of professional girls who deliver and then leave without asking names. No muss, no fuss. What a dunce.

Heh, heh. I am willing to bet that he is a lefty full of the woke manure and only hiring Marxist professors. They always feel that they have carte blanche to do whatever they wish.

Michigan was a liberal cesspool when I went there in the late 70s. It's a thousand times worse now. So this guy getting caught and canned makes me laugh, laugh laugh!

On their work emails. How blatantly ignorant. At least set up off server accts and get yourselves a couple of burner phones. What arrogant stupidity. Well deserved hoisting on his own petard.

Hillary was smarter than that. She set up her own server in her bathroom. That salary is just shocking. I was shocked when I read one time that the head of Red Cross made $600,000/year. This is even worse than that. Maybe someone should start a commission to looking in to salaries paid to ALL college employees since taxpayers are usually on the hook for their funds.

# 10, I first heard a variation of that bit of advice as “Keep your p@cker out of the payroll”.

That must have been some mighty 'good stuff' knowing the rules of the college chancing losing an obscene amount of salary like that. President Schlissel is going to catch hell when he gets home explaining that loss of income to his wifey. No wonder college tuition is so high with pay scales like that to think he doesn't educate one student makes you think is he really worth it.

When his wife gets done with him, he may wish he'd called a professional and put her on retainer. I wonder if the "other woman" lost her job as well. She also violated the rules. I wouldn't be surprised if she dumps him now that he's no longer her boss. You'd think at 64 he'd have better sense.

I’m 72 years old, and I’ve observed something: every major mistake a man makes in his life has something to do with sex.
