Message: [QUOTE="8893, post: 2621682, member: 93"] I hope you are using "you" generically and not referring to me, because most of your post isn't responsive to my comment and assumes beliefs I don't hold. As for my comment, in my experience most collective bargaining agreements have some type of cause standard for terminations. So, while the specific language in Ollie's contract likely doesn't mirror the CBA that governs most other union employees, it is still a principle that protects all of them to some degree. I have no idea what the charges against Ollie are or what he did, but the timing and optics certainly look like the charges relate to things the University knew well before now, which, to me, appear to be being used as an excuse to fire someone when the real reason is poor job performance, i.e., not "just cause."
