Question of the Day

From a reader:

I attended UCF's graduation ceremony this weekend and was forced to sit for two hours and watch the various VP's and other functionaries smirk and pat each other on the back, while the D-List speaker (Orange County School Superintendent, Ronald Blocker) mouthed platitudes about leadership and quality education.

But, what I would like to know is this: was President Hitt's omission of Ida Cook's name while acknowledging the Very Important People on stage accidental, or was it a smackdown for voting against the BOT in the July 23rd meeting? He did go back and make a point of correcting the oversight later in the ceremony, but that only seemed more awkward and weird.
