...Gwen sriously needs a per+empathy roll

Thistle LIKES Gwen

she made a bean pot!!

It is, indeed, very Monday.

so, the BoT is discussing retrenchment!

just what I need during tech week!

I'm not sure I even know what that means.

board of trustees

Yes, but retrenchment?

claiming that YSU is in a "financial crisis" because enrollment is down WHILE WE ARE IN COVID MEASURES

retrenchment is the process of firing tenured faculty without "cause"

because $$$

Mind you, they are also giving athletics staff around $800k in raises

so, when I started at YSU Theatre & Dance had SIX tenures/tenure track faculty

That sucks, Cat.

hi guys. God Neice is here. Sort of a surprise visit

now, we have two tenured faculty and two lecturers (non tenure track faculty on 1 or 3 year renwable contracts)

Oh, for fuck's sake. Sorry, Catnik.

so understand why I feel on the chopping block

I just can;t do this again

Geez o pete

And good, Mr. D! Enjoy her visit!

I don't know what else I can dobut I can't

You deserve better, Catnik.

BUT...maybe it's not the whole BoT, but a small percentage rattling sabres.

D!

Per+empathy for gwen?

Oh, cruel man, Vali.

Sure!
