“Eight of 12 former anonymous coaches and staffers interviewed agreed with Allain that Vicky Chun has created a ‘culture of fear’”.

Again, I have no personal experience with AD Chun, but this deluge of leaks/plants to media outlets both local and national is pretty remarkable. Somebody somewhere has it out for her and is firing a round from every chamber in their gun: Yale Daily News, New York Post, Fox News. That's a pretty unusual portfolio of people to ganging up on a medium level university administrator.

This reminds me of the first few months of the first administration of the current president. The access to top members of the executive branch made it clear that reporters from NBC and the New York Times were speaking directly to Cabinet-level officials. These were the only people who could have been the source of the leaks, given the information disclosed. I wrote an editorial to that effect which was picked up by a national newswire.

My advice to AD Chun would come right out of a 1970's horror film: "The calls are coming from INSIDE THE HOUSE."

Where there’s smoke there’s fire. Yale’s house is in fire.

When someone of Keith Allain's stature and probity writes as he has written, it's a given that the situation is as he portrayed it and must be changed before it deteriorates further, as it surely will.
Yale needs and deserves an AD who "gets it" about Yale. The five year extension received by the incumbent was doled out by someone who never met a problem he couldn't dodge by fobbing it off on a committee hand-picked to deliver the decision he couldn't bring himself to make.
By all means, poll the relevant constituencies and listen, listen, listen. It will immediately become clear that change is long overdue.

So why didn't Coach Allain say anything leading up to his retirement about how unhappy he was with the administration?
