There was an article about the new director of
the Smithsonian in the New York times about a
month ago. You gathered from the description
that his priorities were, in order:
  Increase corporate $$ donations,
  increase museumgoer attendance,
  decrease costs, and
  forget research.
This tended to make the Dir. rather unpopular
with the standing members of the museum staff.
P.S. His income: $450K
