Greetings, Colleagues:
Crisis point? Tipping point? Inflection point? Call it what you want, but it is really time for all faculty and librarians at UMB and concerned members of the wider community to take notice of what great harm our administration is doing to our colleagues in Africana Studies and, by extension, what great harm they are doing to our students. Given the horribly disruptive construction projects we have all been living with in the recent past it is tempting to say that management on campus is gutting the department “down to the studs.”
