Continued thread

I'm so fucking angry about this.

Behind the rest of the bullshit: LIBRARY STAFF became apparently-willing little minions of an anti- #freespeech president.

US #Universities are not laboratories of #democracy; they are authoritarian hierarchies. The president is the monarch and everyone else follows the orders or else.

That's my only explanation for why #LIBRARIANS became meek little fascist approval-seekers.

Ha! Look at this bootlicking bullshit. The Dean of LSU #Libraries is normalizing and justifying the removal of #tenure from #faculty #librarians

Throwing his lot in with #university admin who are openly hostile and contemptuous of the #library

My one regret is that I can only quit that fucking place once

Louisiana Illuminator · LSU librarians can thrive outside of the tenure framework, dean says • Louisiana IlluminatorIn August, LSU announced that it would no longer hire librarians to tenure-track positions.
