Ave Maria University Board of Trustees
Announces Jim Towey as School's Next President
AVE MARIA, Fla. (February 10, 2011) - Ave Maria University's board of trustees announced today that Jim Towey will be the university's next president. Towey will be responsible for the day-to-day operations as president when his term begins on July 1, 2011. Thomas S. Monaghan, who currently serves as Chancellor and CEO of AMU will remain Chancellor, but will relinquish the responsibilities of CEO and hence the oversight of the daily operations of the university.The board of trustees voted on the appointment of Towey at its regularly scheduled meeting earlier this week. Chairman of the board of trustees, Michael T. O. Timmis, made today's announcement on behalf of the board. Timmis praised the incredible vision of Monaghan and the solid foundation that he has set in place for AMU. He also talked about the confidence the board has that Towey is the right person for AMU at this stage of its development.
"This is a huge win for Ave Maria University," Timmis said. "We retain the vision and experience of our pioneers, while seamlessly handing over the reins to the next generation of leadership. It is the belief of the Trustees that Jim Towey is the most desirable Catholic university president in America today. And I am thrilled to announce that he is going to be our president."

What have you ever done, Eponymous smart ass?
ReplyDeleteEver heard of staying on point, Anonymous?
ReplyDeleteSome of our authors have done a lot of things, but none of them, to my knowledge, have ever presented themselves as Catholics, benefited from the self-identification and then acted in fact like protestants under those auspices.
But never mind, facts are persistent things, and God will remember Monaghan's impostures long after most people have forgotten who he was, and the swamp reclaims that ugly thing he's tried to pass off as a church.
You stay on point. I'm not defending him. I'm asking what you've done besides write an anonymous blog.
ReplyDeleteOf course you're defending him. Feeling a little hot under the collar?
ReplyDeleteBrilliant.
ReplyDeleteFor a second there, I thought you might be someone important. I know who you are.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day.
Mr Monaghan is one of those typical smiley, pasty-faced Catholics who, although concerned by the happenings in the Church, will never really understand the nature of the problem due to their robotic papolatry and their refusal to dig too deep into matters.
ReplyDeleteMany have tried these "Catholic conclaves" ideas and they always fail. They never understand that we are no longer living in the great and glorious past when virtually the entire civilized world was Catholic - certainly the whole of Europe. And they lose sight of the fact that they are living in an essentially anti-Catholic, Protestant, masonic wonderland, the USA, and that to start one of these "Catholic towns" is pure folly in such an atmosphere. The fortress mentality will soon come into play and that, combined with a weak and corrupt hierarchy will ensure disaster.
We can applaud some of the good things Mr Monaghan has done (making pizza is NOT one of them) while hoping he will wake up and smell the coffee.
If he weren't himself so influenced by protestantism, he'd understand why it is unacceptable to host Frankenstein experiments on campus. And building an institution on the scale of Notre Dame isn't that much better of an idea either:
