]]> Comment on “Scoundrel” Billionaire to Receive Honorary Doctorate at Sonoma State University by BookwormBev http://shameonssu.org/scoundrel-billionaire-to-receive-honorary-doctorate-at-sonoma-state-university/#comment-47 BookwormBev Fri, 11 May 2012 07:07:32 +0000 http://shameonssu.org/?p=6#comment-47 It is so disappointing to hear this about Sanford Weill. I was looking forward to attending concerts at the Green Music Center, but now, every time I see the name Weill Theater, I will be reminded of the malfeasance done by this man. Makes me regret the season tickets I bought. It is so disappointing to hear this about Sanford Weill.

Lamont was a student at Brown University in 1969 when it offered Henry Kissinger — an architect of the US War on Vietnam — an honorary doctorate. Around two-thirds of students and spectators turned their backs when the degree was given. This is the main tactic expected at the SSU action.

These are the types of cloak and dagger dramas that always follow a protest like this. Good for you for not making any claims about what happened to the papers. They will probably disappear, appear, disappear and reappear several times before this 'mystery' is solved! Let the game of cat and mouse begin!

Sanford Weill and Citigroup have not only brought misery to SSU students and their families but also to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where the UN Panel of Experts, in 2001, reported their involvement in laundering money gained by the illegal extraction of minerals and other resources.

It's like a criminal fugitive who went into exile wanting to come home to the US. Sorry Charlie, you took your money and ran off to Brazil. Stay there please. Mr Weill, we will always remember what you have done. There's no coming home until you give it ALL back and admit the truth in public – that you swindled your fortune and acted like a total sociopath, laughing all the way to the bank. You probably thought you were just smarter than everyone around you. Turns out you were smart, but had not one iota of wisdom (or even common sense).

So now we are going to toss free speech and freedom of the press out the window too? Armiñana is obviously in damage control mode – but he's doing most of the damage himself it seems!

It's important we protest against legitimizing greed, rapacity, indifference, shameful wealth, that the Weills have and use to launder their 'success' at the expense of millions here and around the world. When if not now? that's the question. So I'm there.
