That being an employee strips you of your personal and professional opinions? The statement, "Ask yourself: if the kids who got suspended were white, would Bryson have even cared, much less made a public stink?" just proves my point. If the kids would have been white, they WOULDN'T have been suspended. But to answer your question, YES he would have spoken up. The policy IS flawed and any self-respecting person, employee, community member, etc. would recognize that and speak up even if they are disagreeing with an institution that you have been deeply involved in for nearly 40 years. Did you hear me? 40 years this man has given to this University and if you think that he doesn't deserve a 24% or 50% or 100% raise, I would like to see you do a fraction of his job for one day. Diversity is not a black and white issue it is a human nature issue and the comments posted on here just prove why a position like Dr. B's is needed at this university and every university across the nation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22571319.post-1161911359584989492006-10-26T20:09:00.000-05:002006-10-26T20:09:00.000-05:00Having watched Bryson go vacant every time someone...Having watched Bryson go vacant every time someone complained about due process for faculty at SIUC, I'm amused to see that he's now championing the concept.

He's a major bigot. Along with Walter's belief that "homosexuality is a sin," Bryson's inaction on the GLBT report from Dunn's committee shows this most clearly. Ask yourself: if the kids who got suspended were white, would Bryson have even cared, much less made a public stink? One can only wonder what his fellow administrators think after his publicly chastisizing them for not showing up after he did so so gloriously. To make the joke bigger: isn't he the one who got the 24% raise? Let's only hope he goes along with Walter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
