I think it depends on whether investment choices is something the board normally weighs in on, but your point is good: if this were the other way around, I would probably feel the action was justified.
Honestly investment choices is what I would expect a board to be most involved in. Why would the president be making investment calls?
I think investment choices is one of the primary things boards usually focus on, at least in my nonprofit experience. Not entirely sure about the university, but given some of the demands I have read, that seems to be the case.
