That's sure true. I remember several incidents
involving students, alcohol, drugs. . .all swept quietly under the rug.
It's obvious what is going on here. Lyle needs to pull the
chestnuts out of the fire for those two new faculty he took on so
they can be reappointed and tenured. If he can pin some of their
negative critiques on Diana Trenchant, he can argue that all the
years of bad critiques are suspect and nullify them.
And, of course, Henry and the rest are going along with it
out of revenge--they are just plain pissed off because they
couldn't win her over with snob appeal. She scorned them,
their exalted positions and their offerings. That's it, I bet
anything that's it. Silently apologizing to William Congrave,
Jonathan paraphrased, "Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned
nor Hell more fury than a good 'ol boy scorned." The medical student
that wrote the open letter to The Pope was right--this hearing is
an administrative gang bang.
Jonathan was soon joined by others in brightly colored or
richly black gowns. Peacocked with the educational badge each
had attained and crowned with a mortar board which got its name
from a board used by masons to hold cement.
