Of course, these kinds of subpoena get even more interesting when other issues are revealed by accident. Unanticipated collateral damage can occur this way.

What a joke...the association should definately show up Monday night and embarass the S..t out of the IVC administration in front of the Board. This is a new Board and they will take note of the problem.

What they saw (over time) was a very competent and professional professor in action - which confirmed a sneaking suspicion that the failure to recommend was a kind of personal vendetta rooted in personality, not professionalism. <br /><br />The college admin then had to mediate a difficult meeting where all of this spilled out but it was worth it; the college retained a qualified, talented instructor, a dysfunctional department began to mend itself (not easy, I know) - and the college avoided a costly lawsuit where all of this (and more) would come out. I think they extended the tenure review process in this case, replacing the original members of the committee with new people. <br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16908834.post-27162666861797395802013-02-22T22:07:41.075-08:002013-02-22T22:07:41.075-08:00SEE here.
