I told him that I
thought you had tried desperately hard to learn this material.
I said to him that you were working assiduously and trying
unremittingly but that you and I both felt that you needed
at least another year of study to be really proficient."
On hearing this, Jane blanched with shock. Here was information
that Lyle had falsified a senior faculty person's (Ann) appraisal
on the reappointment papers of Diana. Anuse interrupted Diana's
questioning and attempted to gloss over the damning admission.
He suggested that it was just a misunderstanding in terms.
It didn't work because Ann was angry that her honest comments
regarding the teaching effectiveness of Diana had been misconstrued
in a way that was completely false and she made that clear to Anuse
in no uncertain terms.
After finishing off Anuse, she turned to Diana and said,
"For you to come into the summer course with no training at all,
at the age of 57, and be trained to teach nutrition. . .for you
to undertake such an endeavor amazed me. I made it clear to Lyle
that she needed more time, perhaps one more summer to be
an effective teacher--not what he quoted me as saying!"
Now the chair stepped in and advised that this was getting
way off the subject they were there to discuss, but the panel,
except for Anuse, wanted to hear more and Ann, still angry
at the way she had been misquoted, obliged them.
