Sprague Wild Justice--Ruth M. Sprague Copyright @1993 TX 3 608 425 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!"
