Chapter 2536 Xiao Xiao and Down (Twenty)

The management system of American universities is roughly as follows: the school has a board of directors, which is theoretically a trustee entrusted by the founder of the school, but now has basically developed into the actual person in charge.

The rules for electing the board of directors are different for each school, but most of them are still related to money. Whoever pays more can occupy a seat, but there are also some long-established university boards that are directly elected by the people.

The board of directors of Gotham University has a very simple rule, which is to arrange the board seats according to the amount of sponsorship. There are a total of eight directors and a chairman. The current chairman is Bruce Wayne.

The board of directors will hire a professional manager, just like the board of directors of a company hires a president. This professional manager is the principal. The original principal Seldon was so afraid of Bruce because he knew that he would become the chairman sooner or later. If he offended him, he would definitely be fired.

The important affairs of the school are decided by the board of directors, including the most basic charters and school rules, which are all set by the board of directors, while some daily management details are decided and arranged by the principal and the government department.

Now the chairman and board of directors of the school have never mentioned the matter of hiring a president, which has led to the fact that most of the daily management matters of the school are handled by the government department.

Not all the faculty and staff of the government department are from management backgrounds. Many of them are transferred or have connections. Some of those with professional backgrounds are not qualified to be called professional managers. At most, they have learned some management.

So for a long time, the management of Gotham University has been relatively chaotic. Take this move as an example. Logically speaking, when the new campus is not yet built, people should be sent to monitor it and report any problems immediately.

But at that time, the school was already overwhelmed by managing tourists entering and leaving the campus and students who insisted on going out to play, and had no time to monitor the progress of the decoration of the new campus.

This led to the whole school moving, only to find that this was not right and that was not right, and they had to hire people to repair it again. It would be fine if they waited a little longer, but the key was that they had to spend more money.

And unfortunately, they encountered the Great Depression, which made the already poor economic situation even worse.

In this era, the landlords have no surplus food, and managers who are professional and capable enough can indeed restore the chaotic management and make Gotham University better during the difficult days.

Schiller thought while eating dinner. He guessed that Vincent might have learned about his previous grievances with the principal from some old employees, and felt that Gotham University’s current lack of a principal was still his own problem, so he tried to persuade him.

Schiller couldn’t say that this matter had nothing to do with him, but he really hated people using rules and regulations to change his life pattern. Regardless of whether those rules and regulations were reasonable or not, he just didn’t want to change the rules.

At that time, Schiller hardly accepted any changes, and lived every day without accidents exactly the same, which could provide him with a great sense of security. Bruce may understand this, so he has never hired a new principal.

But now it seems that this principal has to be invited. In addition to Schiller who has already taken the initiative to change, there are no professional managers to manage the school. The economic situation is getting worse and worse, and sooner or later it will change everyone’s life pattern. This salary cut is a good example.

Schiller was not sure whether Bruce was in Gotham now, so he made a phone call and learned that Bruce was still in Washington, mainly taking measures to save the market with those politicians.

After expressing his opinion, Bruce did not say much, only saying that he would call the board of directors, but he could not determine the candidate, and it depended on the board of directors' opinion.

Schiller could hear that Bruce was very busy, but this was normal. If the sky fell, there would be a tall person to support it. Wayne Group was the tallest one. Even if the series of rescue measures taken by Washington were useless, Bruce Wayne had to be present. He was the confidence of the market.

After telling Vincent the news that there would be a new president, the gold medal coach finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then the news soon spread throughout the school. Some old employees who had been teaching longer than Schiller or were about the same age as Schiller were amazed at the change of the professor.

However, they did not have a good impression of the previous president. This professor was a typical villain in Gotham's early days. He was addicted to being a wimp and was messing around when he could not do anything. However, other people did not have such a strong deterrent power as Schiller, so most of the time they dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out.

The faculty members were also worried that another Seldon would be brought in, which would add to the already meager teaching work, so they were all trying to find out who the board would find.

Schiller was not very worried. There were many professional managers in the world. Although many people had jumped off Wall Street before, there were still many people who were just trying to survive. Now, if you go to the Metropolis and take a walk around Bank Street, you can find a homeless person who has a master's degree in finance and economic management. Let alone salary, just give him a meal. How can you not find a good one?

When Schiller returned to his new house, Raven had already gone back. He was stunned when he saw Raven.

Raven had taken off his black robe and changed into a simple sweatshirt and jeans. His long red hair was tied into a ponytail behind his head. He was sitting on the sofa watching TV.

Seeing Schiller coming back, she stood up and put her hands behind her back somewhat unnaturally. Just as she was about to speak, Schiller said, "You went out?"

"Yes, I went... I went to see Zatanna."

"You are almost writing the words "I'm lying" on your face, miss, I assume you know that I am a psychology professor."

"Yes, I went out, but I didn't cause any trouble, I'm sorry."

"This is not a prison, you can go out, I'm just a little curious, what did you do this afternoon, you look a lot different."

Raven tilted his head, lowered his eyes and said, "I went to work."

"This sentence is not a lie." Schiller looked at Raven in surprise and said, "Is the coffee shop job so suitable for you? You look like you just broke out of your shell."

"So it's a good change?" Raven asked.

"Of course, you are no longer so tense, and you are much more relaxed. In my opinion, your emotions have also been relieved. If you continue like this, losing control will no longer be a problem one day."

"Really?!" Raven finally showed a little surprise, but soon he restrained himself.

"Well, actually I went out to move with that crocodile man this afternoon, I mean the mover who moved for you. He hired me to help him with telekinesis. We moved five houses in one afternoon, and each one gave a very generous tip. I earned more than 100 dollars."

Now it was Schiller's turn to be unnatural. He slightly widened his eyes and looked at Raven and said, "You earned more than 100 dollars?"

"Yes, including the tip, but I spent more than 20, because Waylon said I can't wear that robe all the time, I look like a terrorist or an evil magician. He took me to the clothing store he went to before to buy clothes. Is it okay?"

Schiller looked at her, nodded and said, "I think it's not bad, but it should be men's clothing, right?"

"Yes, Waylon only knows men's clothing stores. Maybe I can ask Zatanna where she buys clothes, but I don't think she will approve of me running around." Raven was a little disappointed.

"If your power is not out of control and you have money, then you can go shopping." Schiller said, "I will tell Zatanna that this is good for you to control your power."

"Really?!" Raven finally smiled again, but this time she couldn't control it. She said, "When we were driving, we passed a very busy commercial street. I..."

"You can go and have a look, but the things there are very expensive." Schiller put down his umbrella, took off his suit jacket and hung it on the hanger and said, "It's a shopping street specially built for tourists. $100 will disappear there in an instant, but Waylon shouldn't take you to such an expensive store. Did you only buy one set of clothes with your $20?"

"Of course not, I bought a lot of "I want to eat." Raven turned and walked to the kitchen, opened the cabinets and refrigerator below where food was stored, and said, "If I have to go to work in the future, I will try to make breakfast by myself. Waylon taught me some things today, maybe I can try it tomorrow morning." Schiller had a bad feeling. He stood there and ignored Raven's eyes inviting him to look at the ingredients. Instead, he looked at Raven and asked, "What vegetables did you buy?" "Parsley, thyme, dill, kale, beets, broccoli..." "Stop, stop talking, where is the broccoli?" "In the refrigerator, what's wrong?" Schiller opened his mouth and repeated in his heart "ignorance is innocent", "she is still underage", "can't destroy the decoration of the new house" ten thousand times, but finally said : "Take out the broccoli and throw it away, or throw it away with the refrigerator."

"Don't you like broccoli?" The raven asked in confusion: "Actually, I haven't eaten this either. It looks a bit strange."

The raven also took out the broccoli from the refrigerator and turned it over and over in his hands. Schiller took a deep breath and retreated to the door. He said: "I'm allergic to broccoli. Throw it away!"

The broccoli disappeared in a flash. The raven opened his mouth and said: "Sorry, I really don't know! Are you okay?!"

Schiller let out a long breath and asked: "Where did you throw it?"

"I used magic to decompose it. The taste is really bad. I won't buy it again in the future." The raven shook his head. He shook his head, looking very dissatisfied, and said with a curled mouth: "It cost me 30 cents."

Schiller breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Believe me, your decision is right. This thing is not delicious at all, and it is very expensive."

After that, he looked at the refrigerator that had stored broccoli with some hesitation. Raven followed his sight and fell on the refrigerator and said: "You are not really going to throw away the refrigerator? When I moved today, I saw the same model of refrigerator. I heard that it was customized in Germany and cost more than 3,000 US dollars."

Schiller was silent. He actually liked this luxurious double-door refrigerator. In addition to the powerful fresh-keeping area above, the freezer area below has a large space and can hold a lot of ingredients. It has been unanimously praised by all Schillers.

Well, it seems that ordinary people don’t have so much space for pretentiousness, and broccoli will not spread through the air, but he must clean the refrigerator well.

What the hell, Schiller rubbed his temples. He was still in the house where broccoli had just appeared a few minutes ago, and he was even going to clean the refrigerator where broccoli had just been stored.

"Ah! I need to check if there are any crumbs or anything on this floor. It would be bad if you are allergic." Raven said and went to clean the refrigerator.

Schiller was completely relieved. Recalling the time when Merkel knocked down a giant broccoli and hit him with a critical hit, he now looked handsome when he saw the raven who only bought a small broccoli and knew to clean the refrigerator.
