Presidential Timber - Carlton Molette - Bog

Television journalist Josie Jenkins chronicles campus unrest at the historically black Pemberton State University. Although the school''s difficulties have accumulated over decades, the recently appointed president, Dr. B. W. "Buck" Dickman, seems destined to absorb the blame. Faculty and student factions demand Dickman''s removal as miscellaneous others threaten calamity, foment distractions, and advance self-serving agendas. Dickman appears on Josie''s newscast to unveil a transparently inadequate plan to defuse campus unrest, obliterate financial woes, and eradicate disfavor in the halls of state government. As Josie''s romantic relationship with Pemberton''s academic vice president blossoms, Pemberton''s survival is further threatened when Dickman''s secret indulgences seem destined to become public. Running time is about one hundred minutes without intermission.
