In a September 2014 interview with TribLive, University of Texas System Regent Wallace Hall discussed his ongoing work as a regent despite a prior censure, stating that he did not feel diminished by the action and had continued his duties "unabated." He described the censure process as "biased" and "unfair," alleging that those involved had access to the same information he did through emails and private interviews. Hall also addressed his focus on the University of Texas at Austin, noting that while other campuses had similar issues, the Austin case was what drew his attention, and he acknowledged he had not examined other campuses in the same depth. Hall outlined criteria for the next university president, emphasizing that candidates should have experience running a multi-billion dollar operation, demonstrate strong leadership, and not be an internal candidate from the UT Austin campus, though he did not rule out someone from elsewhere in the UT system. He also noted that he spends 20 to 40 hours per week on UT system business and stated he would not resign before his term ends in 2017.
