Robert Kasdin is the Senior Executive Vice President of Columbia University. This is one of several new Executive Vice Presidents created by PrezBo for doing something Columbia should have already been taking care of. Kasdin, along with Susan Feagin, was brought to CU in 2002 from UMich by PrezBo. At Umich, Kasdin was the "executive vice president and chief financial officer." At Columbia, as one senior faculty member put it, his job is to be the "money man who runs the university" hidden in a bunker. In short, he is Bollinger's Dick Cheney. Other administrators fear him, and everyone lower than administration is too distracted by PrezBo and Sachs to pay attention to him.
His official job description is to "[lead] operating departments, financial management, and innovation enterprises at Columbia University"
Few students and faculty have seen him, let alone interacted with him. These interactions are rumored to be unpleasant.
Mr. Kasdin earned his AB from Princeton and his JD from Harvard Law School.
