[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]McLean School is very fortunate to get someone like Mike Saxenien.  You will find that he has the right leadership skills and experience in the areas where McLean needs improvement.  I would not be surprised to see this school being discussed more frequently in this forum over the coming year.

Signed,

Not his mom.[/quote]

Let's see -- he has never raised money; he's never been in admissions or helped recruit students; he's never overseen a facullty; he has not worked directly with students other than trying to teach an Econ class (and doing it poorly by most accounts).  If McLean needs someone to sweet talk a board or "oversee" a bloated auxiliary program that barely breaks even before depreciation of assets is even considered, then he's loaded with talent.

He demonstrated some extraordinary things during the application process.  I know several folks who were involved as well as several people who know him from other contexts and all say he is an amazing choice.

frankly, I know of several schools right now that are struggling with crappy heads.  I'm a McLean parent and I'm excited about the new head and I think he'll be great.[/quote]
