BACK COVER
The court and the EEOC said sex discrimination!
Belmont U. terminated her anyway!
Belmont University had always looked upon faculty misdeeds such as
child molestation, sexual harassment or record falsification with a
tolerant if not blind eye. Strange then that the entire administration
mobilized to aim its big guns at Professor Diana Trenchant--or was it?
The inner workings of administrative jingoism are exposed as a popular
teacher is given a termination hearing where the presiding officer is
the accuser, the prosecutor and the judge, and the testimony in her
defense is ignored.
"WILD JUSTICE chronicles the outrages of one woman's experience with an
engaging mix of humor and indignation. The use of fictitious names
underscores how the problems are systemic and not merely rooted in the
particular persons involved in this 'witch hunt'. I hope it will be
widely read--both for its own sake and to encourage the kind of
struggle that redirects higher education to serve the people and social
justice, however wild!"
Professor Willard Miller, University of Vermont.
