Petition for a Special BFC All-Faculty Meeting

JavaScript isn't enabled in your browser, so this file can't be opened. Enable and reload.

We, the signatories, petition the Bloomington Faculty Council President to call a special meeting of the whole faculty to consider votes of no confidence for VPFAA Carrie Docherty, Provost Rahul Shrivastav and President Pamela Whitten. Our petition is in accordance with the IU Bloomington Constitution, Section 4.3, which requires a minimum of fifty signatures for such a request.

The current IU administration is encroaching on both academic freedom and shared governance by, among other things, sanctioning faculty and by canceling art exhibits at the Eskenazi Museum. These recent actions, when taken together with the administration's failure to proactively and effectively stand against the Indiana legislature's violations of academic freedom and faculty protections, its fortunately unsuccessful attempt to separate Kinsey from IU, its disregard toward the 2022 faculty vote in support of graduate student workers, and its refusal to publicly support IU faculty member Dr. Caitlin Bernard, motivate this petition for an all-faculty meeting to consider a vote of no confidence.
