In Hoofers it's a mystery why instructors come and go, although hard partiers are preferred. Often the good ones seem to go and it's the jerks who stick around. Brains and teaching skill certainly aren't valued much. But it's difficult to provide details when administrators cover everything up. In general, people who look or act like they're hiding something are hiding something.
Maybe leaving the scene of an accident, operating an unregistered boat, and so on led someone to conclude that Will isn't responsible enough to be a Hoofer instructor. Oh wait... those are prerequisites to becoming a HSC instructor! No wonder Hoofers and the UW are so protectionist.
