The uni didn’t even properly publicize the new policy. It came out during a debate and the student newspaper published it.
“During the course of the debate, it was disclosed that it is now policy of the university to suspend any faculty member with pay against whom a student has lodged a complaint. The faculty member is suspended under the Title IX program,” Schmeltzer wrote. “This was new information to everyone in attendance.”
I actually think that by itself a policy of temporary suspension in response to student complaints is a good idea. Of course this student is not in the right, but there are a lot of shitty lecturers out there.
Yeah ngl it would’ve been nice if my uni listened to the metric ton of complaints about the organic chem lecturer. Dude was a terrible teacher and an asshole.
