Reply from "Gokhan Ozaysin""Academics take second place"
The SCAD chief “academic” officer makes in excess of ¾ million dollars to produce statistics for so-called “faculty conferences.” These meetings consist of self-congratulatory accolades, Brobdingnagian pie charts, student quotes, and well-rehearsed Ted-talk-like gesturing. Faculty have no agency in any shape or form; they are never asked for input about anything of significance. This lack of valuing faculty comments and feedback has led to the significant rollover of faculty positions, which speaks to the wider failures of the institution.
