PRES JDf'.JoI'!" S R£PORT:
President Plachta read the tollowln~ statement
1 have received many cOlmlents of both support and concern related to
the university's decision to terminate two faculty members for
giving fltudAntfl r:rf>dit lind graMR th(!y did not Pllrn. I IIppre(:IRte
these c~nts, because I believe they cc.e from a deep-rooted
understandlntJ of and value for the acad_Ic inte-<]rity of the
IIniv",rRity.
The university h~s been unable for many excellent reasons. to talk
specifically about the individual cases. I would lik~ to note today
Ihllt thp Invf>Rt iglltion Will! pxlr_ly thorough, the eVldpnce Wil li; very
COll'f)&lling. and the decision of the provost was. in Illy opinion.
difficuit but warranted and necessary.
In my 10 Y .. llrll III "",n trlll, I h/lYe fo"nd Ihlll eMU f"''''lly whf-> go OUI
of their way to help particular students learn do so without
compromisinq the university's acader.'lic values. They may devise
1I1ternlltivO! _thodR 10 h .. lp Ih .. IItudentli 1""rn, but Ih .. y hf->ld 1111
students in the <;QUr.e to the same standards -- evO!n though the path
to learning mi~ht be 11 little different That is not what happened
h .. r ...
The urdverll1ty's Investigation showed that these professors did
httle or nothin';) to encour/t']e students to le~rn. In tact, they
IIIPthndir.",lly fllilpd to hold IIludent!; rp;<;ponllihle for 1 .. lIrnlnq, "nd
then rewarded the students with passinq or even excellent qradO!s.
If 1 could draw tram my own dlscipiine, It WOI.lid be similar to an
lIr.cnuntirtg profpIIRor giving I·hf\ high .. ,,! ...,rlldA 10 A IIlurl .. n! who
lIub/nittea a paper Ort marketing principles -- a paper totally
unrelated to the course syllabus. Or aliowin'J a student who had
