Sue Horton on our Courses

So after being unresponsible, being irresponsible, being downright dishonest. We get one tiny bit on inkling from the administration of what might happen if our part-time faculty goes on strike. From this week's article in The Cord:

“I’ve been through strikes at other universities and there is inconvenience,” explains Horton.

“It’s annoying, it causes delays in things but ultimately the students are our paramount concern here. We do not want to have students losing their academic credits ... so we will work absolutely with your interests in mind.”

Her dismissive attitude toward human beings fighting for their livelihoods aside... you know, that minor little bit about the "inconvenience" of profs not having enough to afford the basic necessities for life and her typical promise of "best interests" when the administration has done nothing but stagnate these negotiations, refuse to compromise, oh and lie to us on several occasions right through their teeth (like about the implications of the conciliator coming in). Look at the bold emphasized phrase - students losing their academic credits.

This is the first bit of information she gave us on what will happen and there it is - we might lose our credits if they go on strike. We didn't say it - she did! Behold the wonders of this relic of the Rosehart regime, it's a wonderful thing that Dr. Max Blouw sacked her to the symbolic position of the grand old lame duck of the administration. I can see why our faculty hates her.

In better news, one of the awesomest supporters created a youtube video, it's worth a watch and a share with everyone:
