<p>I came to Dartmouth’s board on CC just to see what the reaction to this news was. It was my understanding that following the economic collapse in 2008 and Kim coming to Dartmouth in 2009, there as quite a bit of grumbling on how he handled the necessary cutbacks. There have also been some expenditures that the community has deeply questioned asking if the man knew anything at all about finance, which just on the very little I knew about the grumbling makes it seem very curious that he was tapped for this position. </p>
<p>So here’s a question: Might there be room to make the argument that perhaps Geithner loves his Alma Mater more than the World Bank? Makes sense to me! :)</p>
