You may remember that HSU announced an interim station management team after
Elizabeth Hans McCrone was forced into retirement
.
As Advancement VP Rob Gunsalus wrote in his
open letter to the community
:
We are exploring options for leadership of the station. Program Director Katie Whiteside and Director of Development Pam Long are assuming joint responsibility for management of the station on an interim basis. I have confidence in their abilities, and both will continue with those additional responsibilities during the transition.
Well, today Pam Long told management that she’s found a new job in the Bay Area and will be gone in three weeks. At the moment Katie Whitesides is on a much deserved vacation. Rumor has it another interim manager may be on the way who will make everyone happy, and provide leadership that will pull the station out of its current mess, but that’s all we’ve heard.
(Note: That’s Pam on the left above, Katie on the right.)
Update: Pam Long’s new job is with the
Bay Area Discovery Museum
in Sausalito, where she’ll be event planner, volunteer coordinator and liaison to the board.

I nominate Arthur Carlson.
Ah yes, The Big Guy…
Well, today Pam Long told management that she’s found a new job in the Bay Area and will be gone in three weeks.
Why is that not surprising?
Pam Long just started KHSU in December 2007 and was doing lots of great things. Her resignation raises serious red flags about the role of the University, especially the infamous Rob Gunsalus. Time to ask some serious questions about what really is going on.
