President Dawood Farahi said he saved money by getting the office furniture made in China and called the criticism 'small-minded.' It's a conference table fit for a Bond villain. The $219,000 oak and glass panel conference table is 22-feet wide, seats 23 and includes data ports, microphones, Bose speakers and an illuminated map of the world. And this massive statement of largesse — built in Shanghai for 10 times more money than similar office furniture — is the property a New Jersey public university. https://twitter.com/dawoodnot
