Dear Letters to the Editor:

The Provost Carol Garrison Doctrine

	The University of Louisville has revealed in the former Dean Robert Felner debacle and in its resistance to opening the records of financial donors to the McConnell Center that a mercenary mind-set has taken hold of the leadership class there.  Namely, President James Ramsey, Provost Shirley Willihnganz and Associate Provost David Howarth in a twisted way think that abuse and tormenting faculty members is how you run a University and it is part of becoming a top metropolitan institution of learning.  Some faculty members across the campus are terrified and fear retaliation for the slightest deviation from this academic dictatorship. 
The right to complain or write rebuttals is a dead letter despite the right to do so is clearly a faculty right written in the Redbook (the Constitution) that governs the University.  This dictatorship at the University of Louisville is allegedly necessary in the quest for high standing and rankings.  The Felner case exposed it as nothing short of mercenary and the protest letter sent to the Board of Trustees signed by 21-brave souls against it offered un-impeachable evidence of it.  
Apparently, the more faculty members are tormented and academically tortured by the likes of former Dean Robert Felner this is considered positive evidence that progress is being made.  The faculty members who are favored are turned against the faculty who object to abuse and being tormented and tortured by what seems to be an emotionally disturbed administrators like Dr. Robert Felner.   At least this is the view of the brave 21-faculty members who signed a letter addressed to the Board of Trustees and this Board spent more time defending President Ramsey and denouncing the signers than investigating Dr. Felner.   
President James Ramsey called these signers’ gripes and rebuttals and grievance letters “anonymous crap” and only reluctantly apologized after others protested his hostile and unsympathetic attitude and his defense of an academic harasser.   Now, Ramsey has appointed a bunch of pro-Administration faculty members and administrators to investigate him and white wash his callous actions and license to allow a Felner to lord it over faculty members with impunity.   There is no plan in the works to restore the good names, reputations and careers of the abused and tormented, those who have been academically water-boarded, so to speak.  
The abused faculty, as best as I can tell and I’ve been told, is on their own and must file grievances or a lawsuit for redress of grievances.  The so-called reform committees only have the power to “recommend” changes and cannot and will not act in any other fashion to protect and defend the abused faculty.  Again, the abused are left with means to restore their status and will not be made whole from the abuse inflicted by Dr. Felner.  In essence, Dr. Felner is getting away with his abuses of faculty members.
The Administration only acted on the issue of Dr. Felner’s misuse of public funding, not on the treatment of the faculty, and this is made clear in the August 28, 2008 letter sent to the Board of Trustees who, at least, the key leaders of the Board, went on record to defend Ramsey and Willihnganz and not the abused and tormented faculty members.
	In 1998, I served on the University Provost Search Committee that interviewed and finally hired Dr. Carol Garrison out of three candidates.   I served on that Committee because President Donald Swain and Provost Wallace Mann, Jr. wanted me to serve on it because they thought I would be a keen observer and an appropriate person to observe and interview the candidates.
	I recall very distinctly that Dr. Carol Garrison said that if we wanted to move to a top-ranked University at Louisville that when faculty members see themselves being left behind and others move forward because of tough standards she planned to put in place that they would scream and these people would have to be ignored because that would be the cost of progress and moving to higher standards.  Moving to higher standards, as it turns out, has been confused with a Marine Corps approach of kick in ‘em the rear end to getting ‘em going or kick them out of the way.  
This get tough policy has little to do with moving to higher standards.   Many unhappy faculty members were placated and allowed to achieve full professor status under the easy-going Boyer Plan, or its remnants, in the area of Service and Teaching rather than in the field of scholarship based on book publications.   There was no getting tough here but the illusion of it to win over faculty friendly to the administration after public reports of widespread faculty unhappiness and the administration sought to raise the favorability ratings of the administration by the faculty and, in turn, to isolate and repress faculty who rebelled against abuses by people like Dr. Robert Felner.  
I remind you that the Human Relations document on Personnel 1-10 Discriminatory Harassment under Roman II. Definitions, number 3 in part says, “Employment or academic decisions made in retaliation for a person’s unwillingness to submit to such conduct…” of abuse was approved of by the University despite a prohibition against this abuse or submission to it.  However, if you dare openly gripe, file a complaint about retaliation or other grievable offenses it is certain in many places at the University of Louisville that you will be targeted for adverse treatment and isolation.  I know this to be true in the History Department in my case and now the 21-0brave souls in the Department of Education and Human Development have confirmed this hostile treatment is a policy.
Many administrators have used the Dr. Carol Garrison doctrine to punish and retaliate against faculty they don’t like or those who register formal or informal rebuttals too strongly or file lawsuits or University Faculty Grievance Committee complaints.  This happened, I argue, in my case.   Dr. Robert Felner was no aberration, he was a product of an understanding that became policy and President James Ramsey’s hostile reaction to Dr. Felner’s victims’ gripes as “anonymous crap” was a predictable response.  The University of Louisville’s old slogan was “Dare to be Great” and now it is “It’s Happening Here!  (It became a bunch of public crap but was ‘anonymous crap’ until exposed to the public.   In short, the Ramsey Administration was only concerning with hiding crap in both the Felner case and in the McConnell Center donors’ names scandal.  There is nothing top-rank about these doings at U of L.  Now is the time for a change at the top and middle management ranks at University of Louisville.  Ramsey, Willihnganz and other Deans must go and go now!

		<description>Yes, the faculty who stood up and signed this letter are very accomplished. Felner was not clearing out dead wood or doing what needed to be done at CEHD, as Ramsey stated. Looking at the top of the list, Pedro is now an endowed chair, The Goizueta Foundation Distinguished Chair of Latino Teacher Education, at the University of Georgia, which is ranked higher overall than UofL. Ellen is now a department chair at NC State, which is also ranked higher than UofL. She was a University Distinguished Scholar while at UofL. 
All of the professors who left, those who signed this letter and those who did not, must be commended for even finding another job despite Felner’s continued harassment. If Felner were clearing out nonperformers, he would have gotten out of their way as they tried to leave. Instead, he harassed professors and obstructed their paths as they sought new jobs and negotiated for new positions. As Novena wrote earlier, if he found out that someone was negotiating with another university, he would sometimes call people at those institutions and slander the professor trying to get away. Imagine talking to a prospective employer and having to warn him that someone, your dean as a matter of fact, may be calling to tell him outrageous things about you, not that you would even know what those lies would be. Congratulations to all who were able to escape.</description>

		<description>Great job as always Jake. For the 21 who signed this letter I say thank you. So many incidents occur in every organization, not just U of L but local government, that to see someone have the courage to go forward is a noteworthy example for others.

I applaud you for your courage and conviction.</description>

		<description>If none of the leadership team members (e.g karen) have contradictory evidence to anything said on these blogs and elsewhere, then they should all be immediately removed from their positions.  The provost and president have the responsibility to do SOMETHING.  It would be one simple way to respond to this crisis that would make an incredible difference for those still suffering under them. I doubt Dr. Haselton will do it; this seems to be the job of the provost.  Besides Dr. Haselton is interim, not permanent.  I think he has the good sense not to become permanent.</description>

		<description>Lucky, why would they say? Nothing has changed. They do not feel any heat or anykind of pain. There salaries are gone up, not down. It is too early to say but  new Dean has not yet confronted any one of them or removed them from any position of power. I am not sure that he would anything like that. He is Ramsey&#039;s buddy and most likely appointed at the request of the leadership team. They all still have the power to enjoy. President, Provost, and Board of Trustees are still supporting them.</description>
