Long-time and highly-distinguished professor and also a member of the faculty senate at UA, Prof. Ted Downing said in the YouTube video, Folks was highly confrontational and lacked trust with the faculty. Ignoring the puffery, in a news report about two women, Downing says "she was highly controversial, confrontational" without specifying which woman he was discussing. He says nothing about "lacked trust with the faculty".

Of course, Liesl Folks and the minions working for her will never! Schazmd - How are you connected to Leisl Folks? Work for her? Related to her? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Semiconductors-Hit (talk • contribs) 16:31, 15 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
