The information was announced in the White House teleconference yesterday by Vice President Joe Biden and Attorney General Eric Holder. In the 2015 $3.9 trillion budget, the administration is asking the Republican controlled Congress to approve $35 million to resolve the backlog.
Holder said, wishfully, that partisan politics should not play role in this decision. Story in the works for the WORD, which participated in the conference call.

I am sending this logo/icon out everywhere, especially using social media for the press release by the New York State Healthy Workplace Advocates. The press release got a nice ride in a journalism/media column written by Richard Prince of the Maynard Institute. Click here for Prince’s Short Takes where he mentions the WORD.

Colleague Shore’s full response is in the earlier blog post here. This writer’s response is below. A version is being readied for the College’s Hunter-L Listserv. A shorten version of Colleague Shore’s comments is at the end of this blog.
Topics of interest to the Hunter College community [HUNTER-L@HUNTER.LISTSERV.CUNY.EDU] …
To the List:
No Hunter-L habitué appreciates the comments of Colleague Larry Shore as I do. Absolutely no one. I’ve told him that many times (okay, more like conveyed to him in emails since we stopped talking collegially several years ago when he was Chair of the D:F/M Grade Appeals Committee).
Clarification: I don’t create the scandals. I write ONLY about the ones that interfere with my teaching, classroom responsibilities and my personal and professional interests, such as bogus Violence in the Workplace complaints. That statement might sound litigiously ominous but it is what it is.
Nevertheless, thanks to the List for its patience during these daunting, troubling, challenging and irascible times regarding the scope and direction of undergraduate media, media studies and journalism at Hunter which, in my opinion, extend beyond the proprietary boundaries of one department.
Best,
Gregg Morris
D:F/M
Vetted for Hunter-L. No sarcasm intended.

SIGNIFICANT DETAILS: Women bear the brunt of the bullying. Employers fail to protect those targeted. Nearly unanimous support in the American public for creating a new law.
The Workplace Bullying Institute defined workplace bullying as “abusive conduct that is threatening, intimidating, humiliating, work sabotage or verbal abuse” in its 2014 national survey. Key results: 27 percent of all adult Americans have directly experienced it, 21 percent have witnessed it; 56 percent of the perpetrators are bosses, 68 percent of the perpetrators are male, and 60 percent of targets (recipients) are female.

D:F/M Colleague Tami Gold, AKA Hunter College PSC Chapter Chair, (seen above trying to intimidate a Colleague at a department meeting with her teenie-weenie camera in video mode, according to her comment at the time) has been relentless, by any means necessary, in her pursuit of sullying the image, exposing the faults and omissions, real or imaginary, of Hunter College President Jennifer Raab.
Gold is Professional Staff Congress President Barbara Bowen’s single-focused pit bull targeting Jennifer Raab, who, a while back, was limned in New York Times and Chronicle of Higher Education news accounts as a bully-of-sorts.
