The latest in this summer’s slew of super prestigious and important accolades: Business Insider has named PrezBo as one of New York’s Top 10 Best CEOs To Work For. Cool and collected as always, he sits at the number six spot, sandwiched between the CEOs of J. Crew and Coach. Here’s their original accompanying PrezBio, in which it was erroneously stated that he ended Columbia’s ROTC program:
Bollinger is the only non-profit CEO on the list. Before Columbia, he was president of the University of Michigan. He was raised in the small town of Baker City (pop. 9,828), in eastern Oregon.
Lee is popular on the Manhattan campus, and is affectionately known as “PrezBo” by his students.
He has faced controversies over allowing Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to speak at the school, and for ending the school’s ROTC program.[Update, 6/1: This sentence has since been removed ’cause he didn’t do that.]Under his presidency, Columbia has remained one of the top overall schools in the country, and its business school ranked 5th in the nation last year.
The praise is all well and good, but we can’t help but wonder: for the love of god, how could they forget to mention that hair?

@Anonymous Oh, isn’t she the one with the ridiculous Donald Trump hair going on? (Hair on the side goes around to the other side.) Keep your hair where it belongs, hon.
Someone please tell her it looks silly
and that her YouTube video was horrible.
@PrezBo was mentioned in an MCAT practice verbal reasoning section.
I was so distracted I got like half the questions wrong.
@PrezBo Is the most racist motherfucker I’ve ever met. Because of his political bullshit, I have never in my life felt so ashamed to be white as I have upon coming to Columbia. Fuck you Bollinger, and fuck her too.
@Anonymous What a bizarre ranking. Working at Columbia, except for a few dozen positions, is just not that glamorous.
@Anonymous So how is that whole “ending the ROTC program” thing going
@... so they read bwog to find the nickname, but missed all ROTC stuff entirely?
@Anonymous not to mention that “prezbo” isn’t affectionate
@To the thumbs up Nice try, PrezBo’s PR team.
@Anonymous muskrat-headed twat.
