It also serves as my protection (as limited as it might be) from being dismissed without a justifiable reason. However, that didn't help the many faculty members at the historically Black Clark Atlanta University in Atlanta last Spring.

I guess retaining bad employees is a good way to defend against charges of bias? All I know is that our university is using current budget issues to "cut out dead wood" like this librarian, does this mean we are doing better? Ill leave my affiliation out of this post ;-) (my colleagues know who I am) What a laugh riot this is. I guess retaining bad employees is a good way to defend against charges of bias?

The college won by admitting that they employ and retain employees who treat all students badly! Come one; come all -- if you have demonstrably bad behavior towards all students and documented credentials that you treat all students badly, you are always welcome at the Peralta Community College District. And so, the employee and the employer are free to go forth and continue to treat all students badly... Is that the message that they want to send? What a Pyrrhic victory!
