Call for boss firing backfires on profs
Posted by Fired Fred on June 5, 2007 5:53 PM
A couple of non-tenured professors should have paid a little more attention to their non-tenured status. See, when you take part in a panel that recommends your boss be outfitted with a pink slip and a swift kick out the door, you need to be sure that the panel can make that happen.
If it can't, well, guess what Professor? The retaliation will come...
Back in April, a 10-member faculty committee at Mississippi Valley State University called for the dismissal of its president, saying in a sharply worded report that a “serious void in leadership exists at MVSU.� The move followed a no-confidence vote by faculty members.That non-tenured status made it easy for Lethal Lester to bust a cap in both prof's careers, as neither of the fired people had finished their terminal degrees. You gotta have those to get tenure, but even more, you have to have the freaking common sense not to provoke a college president without tenure.
Six weeks later, the president, Lester C. Newman, is still at the helm, but two of the 10 professors have lost their jobs. Vickie Curry and Orian Cathey, both nontenured faculty members, have been dismissed, according to The Clarion-Ledger, a local newspaper.
He knows just how soft your career's belly is, and just where to stick the serrated knife.
