Abstract | This report concerns actions taken by the administration of the Community College of Aurora, during the fourth week of the fall 2016 semester, to terminate the appointment of part-time instructor of philosophy, Nathanial Bork, without affordance of academic due process. Mr. Bork was dismissed after conveying his intention to send to the college's accreditor a report detailing his "deep concerns" about the college's Gateway to Success initiative, which modified certain entry-level liberal arts courses in an effort to improve their pass rates. [The initial text of this report was produced by the members of the investigating committee.] (As Provided). |
