No UO Faculty Satisfaction

10/29/2012: Johnson Hall *really* doesn't give a shit what the faculty think, so they simply opted out of the OUS survey on faculty satisfaction:


And they honestly wonder why "their faculty colleagues" voted to unionize? Later in the docket for the Nov 1 meeting the issue of evaluations of university presidents comes up: faculty input will not be encouraged.

  1. I know this makes me That Guy, but really, "should be considered as a *compliment* to annual reviews"?

    [sic, sic, sic].

    Somebody needs an editor. Or a dictionary. Or an English teacher. Do they still make any of those things?

  2. I think Dr. Pernsteiner meant exactly what he wrote:

    com·pli·ment/ˈkämpləmənt/
    Noun: A polite expression of praise or admiration.
    Verb: Politely congratulate or praise (someone) for something.
    Synonyms: noun. praise - flattery
    verb. congratulate - felicitate - praise - commend - laud

    1. There was some talk long ago about a fitting tribute to Bean. I think this might be a winner.

  4. You must be able to get these in bronze. The perfect provost's retirement gift.

  5. Yeah, I'm sure that's why they opted out. They didn't want to hear what faculty think. It is clear why faculty unionized - to be the Rutgers (or PSU) of central Oregon, right?

Thanks for commenting on a UO matter. We value comments with solid information, unverified rumors, or your considered, honest opinion - especially if that involves no more than one cuss word.
