This is getting silly.

The point of the OP was to elicit from posters what position on various issues they would like the new AD to take.

It was not a referendum on proper interview technique.

Wow.

But, I guess that's what you would like to discuss.

So, here goes.

Asking a question that calls for a yes or no response - part of any proper interview - is not a "leading question."

"Do you favor pursuing a new BB Arena?" Is not "leading"

Once the yes or no answer is given the candidate is generally afforded the opportunity to expand on his answer - obviously.

I have no doubt that the candidate is from the outset given a chance to make a presentation outlining his or her vision for the department - his assessment of the department and so forth.

A good interview is free flowing with full interaction with ideas and thoughts moving back and forth.

It is also a social exercise designed to begin the establishment of a business relationship.
