They deserved to lose and will likely lose the next one. Good reviews, no documentation and Barta being anti gay. Lose again and he should be fired.
I think the key is that they didn't keep records. There was no documentation that she was doing a bad job. That's on Iowa.
Griesbaum is suing to get her job back.Yes against Meyers former subordinate and current wife, who used to be the Women's Field Hockey coach, Tracey Griesbaum. I expect them to now settle that case, after Meyer won her civil case.
Pretty much everyone I know that lives in IC or is part of the U of IA I no idea what she did, beside complain about how she was treated.
As it should be.In today's world with these laws it is, and that is the problem.
Didn't he hire her?They deserved to lose and will likely lose the next one. Good reviews, no documentation and Barta being anti gay. Lose again and he should be fired.
That's management 101 right there.
Document, document, document.
Performance reviews are so critical in so many ways, and so many supervisors hate doing them and gloss over them. I am dealing with a situation right now where I have had to do very strict documented performance review followed by performance improvement plan before I can terminate, in a right to work state. The attorney says I can fire the person, but I need to do all of the above in case there is a lawsuit to protect my organization. Most supervisors don't want to put in the time to do documentation, and hence therein lies the problem.
But anyone who manages people should know that.
Hell, I've run basic summer camps and I know that.
Anyone who works at a state funded institution in a position of authority should absolutely know that.
The only people that U of Iowa should blame are themselves.
Did anyone see this article? If it is true, this would make me happy!.

In a myopic, wonkish way you are correct...but the bigger picture is that we have a society that is Dilberty and becoming more Dilberty....yes, I know that is not a word. If you can see beyond the daily gladiatorial office politics, this wasteful sinecure work is worse than parasitic....it is draining to the larger economy. 1968 under John F. Kennedy's vision, we--we being I assume anyone who could have made that jury pool--put homosapiens on the moon. Now.....we document. And market. And try to find personal injury attorneys to make sure we are treated "fairly". And fill out an entire dead sequoia of paperwork everytime we go to see the doctor.
Serious.Especially at public universities. I work at a public college and when we are hiring we have to be diligent in documenting the reasons why we didn't choose to hire the other candidates for fear of being sued. You can imagine how much documentation you would need to fire someone.

Just remember people that the harder you make it for companies or anyone to fire an employee, you are doing exactly this and make 2x harder to hire anyone. Regulations and laws that are supposedly there to help end up choking off the economy.
