BREAKING NEWS: Rank Cronyism, Rank Nepotism Feed the Academic Corruption That Gave D:F/M Its Bad Image

Wednesday, May 25th, 2016

It was Colleague Larry Shore Who Calls Himself a Professor who dared to tell Colleagues at a faculty meeting a while back that the department had a bad image on campus. His comments were at first met with subtle disbelief, followed by quiet resignation.

New York Healthy Workplace Advocates Accepting Personal Accounts of Workplace Bullying Experiences for its March 2015 Lobby Days

Saturday, February 7th, 2015

Send them to: info@nyhwa.org Do not underestimate the power of personal accounts!

Grassroots organizations like NYHWA effectively use personal accounts, which will be distributed to all 212 New York State legislators and the Governor’s office. You can participate in the lobbying effort just by sending NYHWA a written personal account. Workplace bullying includes verbal abuse, psychological abuse, work interference and/or work sabotage and, according to recent studies, is more prevalent than on-the-job sexual harassment & racial discrimination. It also includes phony violence in the workplace complaints and other threats to job safety.

Sign this petition to support the NY Healthy Workplace Bill.

And I will need to do another post to address Colleague Stein’s comments.

Sunday, March 11th, 2012

… below is an email from a Colleague regarding a discussion among my D:F/M Colleagues about a reaction to my March 6 “Attention Professional Staff Congress President Barbara Bowen.”

It needs a rebuttal, of course, but I’ve decided to post it first without comment.[ Note: I wish these people would use all caps for the correct spelling of the WORD.]
