Read The College Rector’s Message Of Defiance To Abigail Spanberger

Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger is once again showing her Left-wing extremist views in action. On Wednesday, May 27, Spanberger fired Virginia Tech Board of Visitors rector John Rocovich from the board.

Spanberger failed to cite any specific incidents in her letter, which accused Rocovich of violating, “the Code of Conduct for Commonwealth Appointees to Boards, Authorities, & Commissions, the Virginia Tech Board of Visitors’ Code of Ethics, and the governing statues requiring board members to act in accordance with the best interests of Virginia Tech.”

Rocovich wrote his own letter in response, a scathing takedown of Spanberger’s blatant partisanship and denial that he had violated any of the Board’s code of ethics.

It is an unprecedented move to oust Rocovich, who has served on the board three times, totaling 16 years, under both Republican and Democratic administrations — the latest as an appointee of Governor Glenn Youngkin in 2022.

Rocovich called Spanberger’s letter “deeply offensive,” and it is “legally unsupported, and wholly inconsistent with the Governor’s own publicly-stated principles regarding the proper relationship between the executive branch and the governance of Virginia’s public universities.”

He continues:

I never have served for personal gain, for partisan advantage, or for any purpose other than the betterment of Virginia Tech and the students it educates. I challenge anyone to identify a single action I have taken on this Board that was inconsistent with the university’s mission or the interests of the Commonwealth.

I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
