Subject: DPAS Retreat
I beheve that the call for a retreat at this point
in time cannot resolve the conflicts
within the department that appear to be administrative
in nature. This continues to
result in a lack of respect for faculty, failure
to allow faculty to do their jobs and the
over zealousness of the chair to change the overall
philosophy of the department
without faculty input. Since no change has occurred
on the part of Dr. Garrison
during the last two months, I don't believe that
a retreat will resolve this conflict.
