Rocky Mountain News: CU groups grill Benson
Skeptics unhappy with answers from finalist for top post
Oilman Bruce Benson moved to reassure skeptical University of Colorado students and faculty members Monday that he will respect academic freedom and not attack tenure if he is selected to lead the school.
But some campus leaders remained in doubt after more than three hours of meetings with the sole finalist for CU president.
Student co-President Charles Gilford III said Benson failed to provide clear answers on basic questions, such as his vision for the university.
