Prof. angry about CFA story
Dear 49er,
I was very troubled by the front-page report,
"CFA angry over raise process" (9/23/99), which reportedly originated from
the e-mail complaint of one lone faculty member who does not want to be
identified.
I urge the Daily Forty-Niner to
carefully investigate such complaints before publicly smearing anyone on
our campus.
My experience to date is that the chairs,
deans, and administrators here are working very hard to adhere to both
the spirit and the letter of the new faculty contract.
Merit pay was included in a contract approved
overwhelmingly by the faculty statewide.
Let us all try to work constructively to
implement the entire contract in good faith.
