AAUP Will Investigate Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
The American Association of University Professors announced on Friday that its general secretary, Gary Rhoades, has authorized an investigation of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute over issues of shared governance. The group says the investigation by a panel of its own members will focus on the suspension of Rensselaer's faculty senate. The office of Rensselaer's top-paid president, Shirley Ann Jackson, suspended the faculty senate there in 2007, and it has not met since.

It looks like she will never be a good politician who will become the first female president of the great United States of America. Other than a magician ("In magic, what logically should happen never does"), who else can suspend a faculty senate for so long? She must be a very powerful magician!!!
