以punishment is justified为主题,用英文写一段4分钟的二人对话
A sophomore whose blog described classmates and professors in derogatory language and bragged about his drinking exploits was suspended Friday by Marquette University.Growing numbers of faculty members say administrators overstepped their bounds and should immediately reinstate the student.
A few months later,he labeled an anonymous professor a 鈥渃ockmaster of a teacher鈥 because he didn鈥檛 like his teaching style.鈥淚 don鈥檛 even gratify him by calling him a professor,鈥 said the student.鈥淗e is one who teaches,as in should teach infants and children.鈥滭br/>And in one entry,the dentistry student wrote about his classmates,鈥淚 don鈥檛 know how I am gonna manage [being with] the same 80 people for the next 3 years,especially when 20 of them have the intellect/maturity of a 3 year old,or are just a plain pain in the ass.鈥滭br/>The student,ranked 11th out of 82 students as of last semester,has made the dean鈥檚 list at the undergraduate dental school at least two times.Until his suspension,he participated in a dual degree program with the University of Rochester.One professor Monday called him 鈥渙ne of our best and brightest students.鈥滭br/>Upon learning about the blog from one of the student鈥檚 classmates,the dental school鈥檚 associate dean for academic affairs,Denis Lynch,gave the student a letter,dated November 2,indicating that he 鈥渕ay have a problem with binge drinking鈥 and calling the student鈥檚 writings 鈥渃rude,demeaning and unprofessional.鈥滭br/>Lynch gave the student an opportunity to sign an 鈥渁dmission of guilt鈥 and to waive a hearing of the Student-Faculty Review Committee,which he declined.His punishment would have included academic probation for the rest of his time at Marquette,a public apology to his class,and counseling for 鈥渂oth your alcohol abuse and the underlying basis of your remarks posted on your blog site.鈥滭br/>The student deleted his blog but did not consent to the punishments.He and his parents hired a lawyer to help defend him in front of the Student-Faculty Review Committee,which includes five faculty members and the presidents of the dental school鈥檚 four classes.
On Friday,the committee found the student guilty of professional misconduct in violation of the dental school鈥檚 Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct.Section IV,Subsection E of the code in the school鈥檚 handbook states:鈥淓ach member of the MUSoD community is obligated to conduct interactions with each other,with patients and with others in a manner that promotes understanding and trust.Actions,which in any way discriminate against or favor any group or are harassing in nature,are condemned.Respect for the diverse members of the MUSoD student body,administrators,faculty,staff and patient base is expected.鈥滭br/>The committee鈥檚 decision states,in part:鈥淵ou are suspended from the School of Dentistry,effective immediately.You will remain suspended from the School of Dentistry until the 2006 Fall Semester.At that time,[you] will be allowed to resume your matriculation and will be required to repeat the second year of the predoctoral program in its entirety.鈥滭br/>It also requires that the student remain on probation until graduation,get counseling for 鈥渂ehavioral issues,鈥 and make a public apology to his class by the end of the fall semester.鈥淭hat apology must explicitly state your contrition for the crude,demeaning and unprofessional remarks posted by you on your blog site and an admission that you violated the School of Dentistry鈥檚 Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct,鈥 according to the committee鈥檚 decision.In addition,the punishment indicates that the student must repay the university a scholarship he received of $5,000.
The student鈥檚 lawyer,Scott Taylor,a graduate of Marquette鈥檚 law school,said Monday that his client was 鈥渘ot comfortable鈥 speaking with reporters at this time 鈥渂ecause the administration has construed his comments as being critical,and he鈥檚 being punished for that.鈥 Inside Higher Ed decided not to reveal the student鈥檚 identity.
Taylor said Monday that Lynch seemed intent on embarrassing the student while questioning him at the hearing.Taylor said that Lynch asked whether the student鈥檚 parents were proud of him,and whether he would teach his younger brother or sister how to create such a blog.The lawyer was not allowed to speak at the hearing,and said 鈥渋t was a daunting task for a 22-year-old who has never been through this kind of inquiry to have to defend himself.鈥滭br/>Said Taylor,鈥淚t would be like me trying to perform a root canal,鈥 noting that administrators did not allow the student to call six of his seven witnesses to his defense.
鈥淭he notion of due process at a private university is extremely limited,which is not to say it鈥檚 right or moral or fair,鈥 he said.
On Monday,Lynch said he would not comment on this matter.
An official statement from the university said,in part:鈥淢arquette respects the confidentiality of all those involved in the student conduct process which is subject to federal laws regarding educational privacy.鈥滭br/>Some Marquette professors have labeled the punishment 鈥渁busive,鈥 鈥渁 travesty鈥 and 鈥渦nethical.鈥滭br/>Kevin Siebenlist,a biomedical professor,testified at the hearing that the student鈥檚 blog entries were no more egregious than words said to his face by students.He called the blog 鈥渃rude,鈥 but asked,鈥淲hy should I care?鈥滭br/>John McAdams,a professor of political science,wrote on his Web site Sunday that the code the student was charged with violating is 鈥渟o absurdly vague that is could be stretched to cover about any kind of uncivil behavior,but it must be stretched to the breaking point to apply to comments directed against unnamed individuals on a blog.鈥滭br/>鈥淚ncreasingly,students have blogs,and students in high pressure professional schools often 鈥榖low off steam鈥 by posting about their experiences,鈥 he wrote.鈥淎nybody with any 鈥榖log sophistication鈥 won鈥檛 take statements on student blogs very seriously.鈥滭br/>McAdams said that Marquette 鈥渆ncourages students to post public comments about their professors鈥 through an online posting board called 鈥淒ogEars鈥 that can be accessed via a link from the student government Web page.He said that the link can only be interpreted as Marquette encouraging students to go to the site and review their professors.
Daniel D鈥橝ngelo,the Marquette Dental School鈥檚 ethicist,said Monday,鈥淚 did not feel what the student had done had risen to violating the ethical codes.The punishment was unduly harsh,and I can鈥檛 support the decision of the committee.鈥滭br/>D鈥橝ngelo noted that he played no part in the defense of the student.鈥淚鈥檝e been very surprised by this,鈥 he said.鈥淚t鈥檚 a blog.It is what it is.鈥滭br/>Marquette鈥檚 general counsel informed Taylor Monday that the student can attend classes until an appeal to William Lobb,the dental school鈥檚 dean,is resolved.Initial appeal forms were filed Monday,and will be supplemented on Friday after the student and his lawyer have had an opportunity to review the full transcript of the committee hearing.
