- W2052208721 abstract "We would like to amplify the ScienceScope item “Georgetown faculty on warpath” (11 Dec. p. 1967). In December 1997, 18 tenured Georgetown University Medical Center faculty filed a grievance against Medical Center Executive Vice President Sam Wiesel and University President Leo O'Donovan for instituting a faculty compensation policy that was enacted at their behest by the board of directors without faculty approval. The grievance asserted that the policy violated the tenure contract with the university as well as the principles of academic freedom and economic security set forth by the university in the Faculty Handbook, a code of conduct and governance developed by the board.The grievance was adjudicated in accordance with the university's grievance code, first by a grievance panel chaired by faculty member Sam Dash, which affirmed the grievants' position and mandated that the plan not be implemented, and second, upon appeal by the administration, by the full university Grievance Code Committee, which also found in favor of the grievants. The last level of appeal was to be to a university executive vice president designated by the president, but he declined to appoint a designee, and therefore, by default, the grievance process ended and the committee's decision was declared final.However, unbeknownst to the committee, the president convened a meeting of several board members to ask that they nullify the committee's decision, prohibit further grievances concerning the policy, and suspend the policy, but not retroactively to 1 July ([1][1]). By taking this extraordinary action, the president and board of directors not only illegally nullified the grievance process but enlarged the scope of the grievance to encompass all tenured faculty at the university's Medical Center, Main Campus, and Law School. Because during the ensuing year, attempts to resolve this issue with the administration have been met with anything but “the spirit of cooperation and collegiality” as has been proclaimed, the grievants have been left with little alternative but to file a lawsuit. It is still hoped that in the best interests of faculty and students alike, the president and board will reconsider their decision to suspend due process and reaffirm the university's obligation to tenured faculty, principles that have been the cornerstone of Georgetown University for 200 years.1.
