Hunter College Threatens Disciplinary Action Against Tenured Journalism Professor Because of Exposés About Academic Corruption & Debauchery
April 11th, 2017The threat is revealed in this copy of a letter below, a response to the Chair of the Department of Film and Media Studies, Jay Roman, who was a messenger for the threat.
April 7
Jay,
This is a response to your November 11 letter. It shouldn’t be confused with that request you repeated at the November 7 meeting for me to contact Hunter Attorney Sandra Nunez. In this April 7 message to you, I address the saber rattling about “disciplinary action.”
The following action would much better serve the truth because it would be nonpartisan, impartial and independent as well as free of the department’s rank nepotism and cronyism and any Administration imprudence, and it would be transparent. Hunter is accountable to certain city, state and federal agencies. An investigation by such an agency, besides the benefits described, could require statements given under oath.
[Note: Regarding Hunter Attorney Sandra Nunez who emailed me April 10, Monday; see below. I have no idea what she means.

March 30th, 2017Query:
I’m trying to get background information on situations like the one I’m describing here (as succinctly as possible):
Three students in a journalism ethics class of 21 decided that they didn’t like the class (two flunked an assignment and one didn’t do the assignment) and met with a deputy chair of my department who told them how to file a complaint against this instructor and the deputy chair said that the department has been trying to get rid of this instructor and that their complaint would help.
The three students took the information back to the instructor’s journalism ethics class, relayed what the deputy chair said and tried to recruit students to joint in the complaint. The deputy chair also told the students that one they should tape the instructor’s class. One did. A dean told the instructor that at least 13 students supported the complaint but it was subsequently learned that this wasn’t true, that there was a hardcore of about as many as six students.Eventually, three students filed the complaint and, later, another student joined the complaint. Usually complaints about grades are settled by the grade appeal process.
I’m trying to learn how widespread is this abuse of a policy as well as the manipulation of students to attack professors this way.
Thanks for any information,
Gregg Morris
Assistant Professor
Tenured

Activist Colleague Kathy Cole, Who Supports the NYS Healthy Workplace Bill, Speaking Out About, “No One is Watching Over the Education Department…”
March 5th, 2017On this Sunday I am asking my friends, my family, my sisters and brothers who are fighting for the rights of our children to take 12 minutes and watch this interview, share this interview … I am an advocate for the children’s educational rights. I am fighting for the rights of the differently abled learners and their right to a NYS diploma as well as the safety they are entitled to by law in their school gym.
I am in court as we speak trying to have education law 409-f enforced and expose the dysfunction surrounding it. It was enacted after two students were crushed and killed in their school gym.I am not asking for your signature, your money, or your time … well, just 12 minutes of it to watch this and to share this to educate the parents and the tax payers of why I fight for our children’s rights. Why we ALL fight for our children’s rights … I choose to FIGHT rather than sit back and accept the dysfunction in our education system as I was TOLD to do.
They say SUNLIGHT is the best disinfectant … I say FACEBOOK and parents dedication to a cause is pretty good too … Thanks … Please make a comment if you see fit on you Tube after viewing this. Couldn’t tag everyone so PLEASE share.
Thank You and enjoy this beautiful day.
