PETITION
FOR
THE IMMEDIATE REMOVAL
OF
Mr. George Zoffinger
As a Member of the Board of Governors, Rutgers University

We, the undersigned, as alumni, students and friends of Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, implore the Governor of the State of New Jersey and the Chairman of the Board of Governors of Rutgers University to take immediate action for the removal of Mr. George Zoffinger in his position as a member of the Board of Governors of the University and immediately seek an interim replacement for the remainder of this term ending in 2010.
Mr. Zoffinger has become not an only an embarrassment to our University but the leading divisive element that is thwarting the rightful growth of the University as one of the leading public educational institutions in the nation. His conflicts of interest relative to serving on the Board of Governors are well known.
By his own public admission he moved his primary residence to the State of Pennsylvania in order to avoid paying New Jersey property and income taxes that might flow to Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey. On other election contribution forms filed with the State he has alternatively claimed New Jersey residence. On behest of the best interests of the State, the University and all that support and benefit from this fine institution we not only request but demand the removal of this member of the BOG as soon as possible so that the our State University can move forward without continued controversy and without any semblance/reality of important decisions being fostered by the implication of personal ambitions.
We therefore plead that this action be taken at the soonest possible time.

    • Zoffinger is a mole who has leaked confidential information to the Star Ledger, and he needs to be removed ASAP. He has no allegiance to RU, lives in Pennsylvania, was nominated to the position by a corrupt McGreevey right before he shamefully stepped down from office, and he has publicly said in the newspaper that Schiano will bolt for Penn State. He has made it his personal mission to have Bob Mulcahy fired, when this man has done more to elevate the profile of this university than anyone in the last 20 + years. He is no friend of Rutgers and needs to be removed and replaced immediately.

    • George Zoffinger is as corrupt as they come. He never should have been appointed to the board of governors and students and alumni have been protesting his appointment since the beginning of his term. He clearly does not have Rutgers' best interests in mind and should be removed immediately.

    • Thank you for pushing your personal agenda ahead of the interests of Rutgers. In fact, I think you should be charged with financial terrorism for the bomb called "Xanadu", a true abortion of taxpayer money.

    • George Zoffinger is a bitter man who cares more about antagonizing than helping Rutgers. He only cares about his own politcal gains, and we don't need a PA resident on the Rutgers BOG
