Who is really calling the shots?

In a recent meeting with Shelton, a certain program at the U of A asked some tough questions. The one that most concerns us is this one:

"So, essentially all these white papers could be submitted by different units and then just thrown away by the upper administration if they want?"
"YES!"

Can anyone say perceived participation? Be on the lookout for false consciousness, people. Just because the administration 'looks forward to your input' doesn't mean they are actually going to take it into account when making decisions.
