"The good news: after a year of planning and writing, I got the grant.The bad news: both faculty co-chairs of the Climate Action Group are now among those losing their jobs as a consequence of Academic Program Prioritization, which, as far as I can see, is disaster capitalism for higher education.
All told, at least nine IC professors who teach some aspect of the climate crisis — in five different departments — are on the chopping block, with Recreation and Leisure Studies disappearing altogether."
BWAHAHA.
"I’ll be leaving Ithaca College at the end of this year. I am sorry. I wanted to build a thriving Center for Climate Justice here, but I’m demoralized and aware that the collective intellectual capacity I was counting on is being sacrificed to austerity.Finally, and because I believe in transparency: my salary is $31,050."
BWHWHWWAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
Her salary for that ONE silly position was $31K. But I’m going to assume she got paid from many other entities due to her work in the nonsense climate science racket. I can only hope that as colleges feel the squeeze of the economic fallout from covid, people like her will be the first to go.
Center for Climate Justice? Recreation and Leisure Studies? I will go out on a limb and venture a guess that Ithaca costs on the order of $70K a year. What a joke.
Holycarp! Her salary is $31K? I swear I thought this was satire. Students who spent $70K to go there should demand a refund.
Has she taught ANYTHING that was useful to students in real life?
Salary may be true. What does she make in grants, book authorship, royalties and sales etc? Like servers in restaurants academics do not make the majority of their money from salary.....
