Disclaimer: pure speculation. I don't know jack about academia. That said, I was trying to reconcile the disparity of WCU saying that it had planned this reorganization for some time with the decision to cancel the 2015 poetry conference. I mean, if I were planning for some time, I'd plan to have an acting director who could take over immediately. Unless I didn't want a couple hundred Bridgford fans on campus a couple of weeks after tenure decisions are announced.
