t our
confidentiality had not been breached.
"I disagreed with him and said that I had seen copies of those
evaluations and the report of the document examiner. He started
yelling then and became very defensive. He said that the only
evaluations that were sent out had been written by you. We said that
if he knew that, why send them out. Then he got abusive of you and
said like you were crazy to do something like that. He said that they
sent them to a document examiner because they knew you wrote them. He
said he would never do that with any evaluation that a student made
out."
"Can you recall anytime during the first semester that I had an injured
wrist and couldn't put instructions on the board?"
"Yes, it was in December--exam week, the 9th through the 13th. I did
some of it for you."
The panel started to bombard Jennifer with questions. Good, Henry
thought, apparently they aren't interested in her direct evidence
relating to the incapacity of Diana as they are totally ignoring that
testimony. Instead, they are giving all indications of being hurt by
her denunciation of the way the evaluation process is carried out at
Belmont.
A typical faculty reaction, Henry chuckled to himself as he listened.
They aren't asking questions, they're defending our evaluation process
by giving long speeches. Here's Anuse explaining at length that the
university takes student confidentiality very seriously and pays a
great deal of attention to evaluations. He's trying to stroke the
witness into backing off from some of her allegations and it appears to
be working....no, not any more, he went too far.
Jennifer was quite sharply reminding Frank that she had written her
concerns to various administrative officials around campus and the fact
that student evaluations had been misused had been confirmed.
I'd better help, thought Henry. "You must understand that Lyle Stone
had to give the answers he did because by that time he knew the results
of the examiners report and anything he said was referring to that."
The witness, however, remained adamant. It was her distinct impression
that Stone had already convinced himself that Diana had written the
critiques before they were sent to the examiners.
