It is clear who is at fault: Joey Halipern, Biz Lindsay-Ryan, Soo La Kim, Sergio Hernandez, Donna Wang Su, Maya Wilkins, Marquise Weatherspoon, Anya Tanyavutti, and Tracy Olasimbo. All of these people were/are board members who failed in their oversight of the administration.
I will also throw a second tier of responsible folks: Candance Chow, Suni Kartha, Rebecca Mendoza. All of these people endorsed both the non-public process that hired Horton--including clear lies when they told the public Horton requested anonymity during the search--AND they voted for Horton for superintendent. It was clear from his resume and the public record that he was patently unqualified for the position.
The only thing more nauseating than their abdication as board members is the effort at the moment to blame someone other than themselves.
These financial problems were anticipated by people like Tom and the peanut gallery commentors at the Evanston RoundTable and Evanston Now. Had people like Joey, Sergio, Biz, et . al, checked their contempt for the public and asked basic questions we wouldn't be in this mess.
