The 4th lawsuit to be served on TSU

-
A 4th lawsuit was recently filed on June 20, 2019 by a former TSU law school graduate and librarian at the Thurgood Marshall Law School.  The concerns and complaint is much of what we have heard over the years from faculty and students- gender discrimination in the form of unequal and inequitable pay disparity as well as a hostile work environment.  These allegations have been confirmed and verified by the ABA prior to this lawsuit.
The law school had been working towards efforts to make the work environment more hospitable as well as more reflective of a harmonious working atmosphere, but we question as to how 2 lawsuits by 2 separate law school employees (see our blog post on November 3, 2018) have now been filed and there are rumors of other law school lawsuits coming soon.  We are aware of at least 1 EEOC complaint at the law school filed very recently who's facts are eerily similar to the current lawsuit being discussed here.  We anticipate this will also turn into yet another law school lawsuit.  Perhaps it is ironic that a school which teaches how to sue is being sued itself. 
 The new dean recently appointed seems to have a very heavy plateful and we wish her much success in preventing any further lawsuits.

Is there anyway you could contact me or I could contact you? I am preparing formal reports to over 20 investigatory agencies and I need clarification. I too am a participant of Texas Southern Univeristy and have been a recipient of the abuse of power residing in office. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Why is the Registrar teaching 2 classes 2 days a week during working hours?

As our last post discussed the concerns of teaching classes regarding the General Counsel in the School of Business, it seems that he is not the only top administrator teaching courses on our campus.   https://transparencystate.blogspot.com/2021/10/why-is-general-counsel-teaching-at-4pm.html Our Registrar is teaching 2 classes during normal workday hours at 9:30 am and 11am on Tuesdays/Thursdays, a total of 200 minutes outside of her office each week.   This would be conservatively $5,000 extra (***estimated) for each class in her paycheck, a total of $10,000 for this semester and possibly $20,000 for the academic year if she teaches next semester also.  We doubt that she is teaching these 2 classes for free.  We do wonder since both the Registrar and the General Counsel report directly to Madam President - did she permit them to teach and make extra money?  Neither one of these individuals seem to have been teaching prior to this semester, so why have they suddenly now become interest

CONFIRMED: Permanent Removal of Dr. Adams and Professor Robinson from the MPA program

-
It seems that the School of Public Affairs becomes messier the longer that Dean Kieh and Interim Associate Dean Ewoh remain in power.  It appears that based on a pretext of NASPAA accreditation guidelines Drs. Ewoh, Majumdar, Christophe and Oluponmile collectively voted to remove professors Adams and Robinson from the MPA program permanently .  When questioned as to why these 2 senior and long-standing professors were removed from the MPA program, the 4 professors (all administrators) responded that they were following accreditation guidelines yet the accreditation guidelines do not prescribe an abrupt removal in the middle of the semester.  Moreover Interim Associate Dean Ewoh should not have been present in the meeting and voting against the 2 professors as he represents the Dean's Office and works as Interim Associate Dean .  Department and program meetings are understood to only have tenure and tenure track faculty members in attendance.   We wonder: Does this actually mean tha

What happened to the Registrar- Ms. Marilyn Square?

It seems that Ms. Marilyn Square, TSU's decades-long Registrar and the second-most powerful TSU administrator has abruptly retired in August without any recognition or well-wishing from TSU for all her years at TSU. Not even a single email announcing her retirement!   Ms. Square was extremely well-known and recognized for all her hard work on behalf of our students.  Routinely Ms. Square would spend weekends and nights assisting students and faculty to make sure our students were able to graduate on time.   The Registrar is actually more powerful than the Provost and is the only administrator (besides the President) who can over-rule the Provost.  Rumors are that the Provost repeatedly did not agree with the Registrar on certain academic issues and is possibly the reason why Ms. Square has left the university without any fanfare or thanks for her service.   We find it very disappointing that a personal disagreement between 2 administrators has potentially harmed our university as
