That's why Penn is so insistent to create the fiction of a "community
partnership". But they really don't want a partnership. They still want to
make imperious, unilateral decisions over this area, but instead of exposing
themselves to more bad press, they want to make it look like the community
signed off on the decisions.
* Things really get bad when people believe their own fictions.
* Experience with Penn administrators, trustees, and flunkies shows
they believe the University's fictions (about "community partnership" at
least, probably about other things too, but I won't go into that).
* Ergo, things have really gotten bad.

You read it here, first, on the ever-popular Popu-List (
lurkers from the Sweet Barking Cheese list are welcome, but it would be
appreciated if they'd check their chewing gum and razors at the door and mind
their manners while here).
