Krug resigns
-
I'm against departments pushing out people that they don't like, and I'm against departments pushing out people with tenure.
But, if Krug hadn't resigned she should have been fired.
She lied on her job application, which was very likely a violation of documents that she signed.
Even if there's was no legal justification for firing her she can't really perform her job: teaching, service, and scholarship.
What good would it do you to take a class with her? To get a rec letter from her? To have her as your mentor?
How could she be a useful committee member at her institution?
Who's going to give her grants? How many of her articles will escape being desk rejections?
She lied to advance her career, and she admitted it. She cannot justify having a place in the academy.
i'm very much against the idea that a department can push you out just because they don't like you. hopefully she got a deal and it's just not being reported.

Given the pervasiveness and violence of anti-black racism both within and beyond the ivory tower, how in god's name could claiming to be black help advance one's career?

I don't think you should have to be black to be a professor of Black Studies.
But, it is easier to get a Black Studies job when you're black.

She didn't lie. Application documents ask what race you identity as. There is no legal definition of race.

She didn't lie.
Krug told Fosado that her surname was pronounced “Cruz” — claiming it was a “transcription mistake” when her “grandparents came to this country from the Caribbean,” the editorial director wrote.
Etc etc.

What you point to is a lie.
She said she lied. Even if she didn't say she lied. She didn't really identify as black (a la Rachel Dolezal).
She presented as black in order to advance her career.

Your comment itself is representative of the violence black and brown bodies routinely face in university settings. #blackintheivory

This one made me laugh out loud. Oh yes, so much racism and violence in academia. -
The hashtag gave it away that you are trolling. you could have kept going if you didnt blow it.

Lied how? Only if she literally wrote "as a black latina from the bronx" somewhere. The EEOC data is for reporting purposes. Couldn't fire her for that.
