Sen. Stephen Sweeney’s attempted coup at Rutgers: Editorial
Senate President Stephen Sweeney’s bill to dismantle Rutgers’ Board of Trustees, if it passes, isn’t likely to survive the inevitable court challenge. The 1956 law that gave Rutgers to New Jersey enshrined the trustees’ power. It’s ironclad, and can’t be undone by anything as simple as a bill.
That makes the debate an academic one, which is appropriate. (Star-Ledger)
