  4. To answer the title the college does this all the time. They already pick a person before they advertise. It's common practice and it should be banned. The whole point of having to advertise positions is to give others s chance to apply and possibly get the job. SU has pulled this scam for years.

  8. With those certifications that person will make more than the Fire chief. Talk about a fat budget. What do they want next , drivers for the chiefs so they can pick their noses with both hands driving to and from work.
