NDSU firing reopens old wound regarding treatment of women

North Dakota State’s ouster of a female vice provost is part of a pattern, women at the university say. Lawyers, in unusual release of documents, say her office mishandled discrimination complaints. On Sept. 15, an email went out to the North Dakota State University campus saying the vice provost for faculty affairs and equity position “will be discontinued.” “We thank Dr. Canan Bilen-Green for her service in this position as she returns to being a faculty member in the College of Engineering,” wrote David Bertolini, the provost. He went on to describe a broader restructuring of his office.
