A 'constitutional crisis' at Trinity College?

A dispute at the Connecticut college over two deans’ behavior has administrators and professors at loggerheads regarding the limits of the faculty’s investigative authority. A professor’s complaint against two deans has grown into a conflict over shared governance and the faculty’s investigative powers at Trinity College in Connecticut. Last fall, the private college’s faculty ombud found that the dean of faculty, Sonia Cardenas, and an associate dean, Takunari Miyazaki, had tried to pressure a professor to retire after conducting a “climate assessment” of the professor’s department, according to documents provided to Inside Higher Ed on condition of anonymity.
