[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any idea why Meg Goldner Rabinowitz’ left GDS? Out of nowhere she gets a job at Maret for, what I believe was, a newly created position—one that was not advertised. [/quote]

From what I understand - she worked with Maret HOS in prior job.  I assume the Maret HOS asked her to come join him to work together again.  [b]This is not out of the ordinary in professional life.[/b][/quote]

+ 1. I’m in HR and it’s expected with executive hires and we plan for it[/quote]

Here is what is not normal. Allowing the HOS who has struggled across various metrics choose his Associate Head. He has lost the respect of the faculty (it’s bad) and teachers have no idea why the board would allow him to select a friend to come take over a senior role that he created. Why not do a real search and find someone who can actually help the school, the most qualified person? Especially since he continues to flounder in so many public and private ways. It really is hard to witness from the faculty side. This type of “appointment” is not normal.

Shouldn’t you be blaming the board who OK’d it then? I don’t blame him for wanting to bring on someone he trusts- ante executive would try to do this in any job. But the board could have said no.

Let’s get real: The board is not getting rid of this guy after three years. Because it would mean yet another search. Learn to love him- and her for that matter. You’re stuck with them.[/quote]

This.

Plus, if you are unhappy as a faculty member, you can be proactive and 1) talk to the admin directly or 2) explore other opportunities instead of spending your time bashing the school you work at in an online forum [/quote]
