Open Letter to Jay Roman, Former Chair of the Department of Film and Media Studies, Hunter College, City University of New York

Dear Jay, after you read my letter please contact me as soon as you can. It’s important that we talk. To give you an idea what I want to talk about, below is a long ago post from one of my blogs. Issues are still simmering. I’ve also written former chair Stuart Ewen; yet to hear from him; time’s running out for that erstwhile Colleague.

[I have been considering writing an open letter to Peter Parisi too, keeping in mind, De mortuis nil nisi bonum. But I believe enough time has passed, so it’s on to, Dic quidquid vis de mortuis, si merenturi.

Attention Jay Roman, Chair of the Department of Film and Media Studies at Hunter College, City University of New York–Tuesday, August 26th, 2014

As the fall 2014 semester begins, I believed this is a good time for a moment of recollection. The Hunter College Senate this past spring upheld my appeal of a D:F/M Grade Appeals Committee decision to give a passing grade of B to the worst cheating student in all my years of teaching, not just at Hunter but at Rutgers. And LIU, Brooklyn Campus.
