Tennessee State University leadership has 'repeatedly fallen short,' and poor decision-making has exacerbated an on-campus housing crisis that has required many students to live in hotels, a new state report found.
"Right now, TSU is not a well-run organization," comptroller Jason Mumpower told lawmakers during his presentation.
School officials quadrupled their scholarship budget for the 2022-23 academic year and mounted a massive recruitment campaign despite already strained housing options, the report found. Most of the scholarships guaranteed housing.What they're saying:said leaders "take seriously the matters cited in the document but believe that the report is misleading and misrepresents the actual state of conditions at TSU.
Lt. Gov. Randy McNally told reporters Thursday there were "very serious problems" with the board and TSU president Glenda Glover.
