Stonewalling Stymies Students
With Spring semester registration next week, students at New College of California don't know whether to register, boycott, picket, or all three. As the school's board of trustees continues to maintain secrecy about a Western Association of Schools and Colleges report issued last week, students and faculty are left in the lurch wondering if the institution is on the verge of losing accreditation any day, and what, if anything, they can do about it.
As things heat up, with lawyers showing up at faculty meetings to talk about trustee liability for financial damages, and students apparently ready to walk out in protest over trustee stonewalling, we expect fireworks by February.
