•URGENT: Support Job Security for College Teachers •UNIVERSITY SAYS NO TO STUDENTS •MINIMUM DEMANDS •Response to article on South Asia search •i lend you my name •R-E-S-P-E-C-T please do what is honorable, might does not make right 3/807 Many people may wonder why I am taking a course of action which seems so counterproductive to me personally, after keeping a relatively low profile in Spring 2006, when I heard abour the termination of my Lecturer's contract. Put simply, it is entirely a point of honor, loyalty to students, and solidarity with other teaching faculty. "He may be doing somebody else a favor, but he is not helping himself" (a remark overheard in Kayak's Coffee Shop in early Autumn 2006). I am sure this is true. I was prepared to take my hat in my hand and move to another local University, with two good recommendations guaranteed, when I thought the the process was, if not fair, at least reasonable, perhaps a budgetary matter. I no longer believe this. You may wonder why I want my job back, under the circumstances. Once again, it is a point of honor, and loyalty to my students.
