A continuation of the conversation we had on October 24th with students from Burlington College about the firing of Genese Grill Ph.D., a much loved professor of writing, literature, cultural studies with just a few weeks left in the semester. In this interview, Genese tells the Howie Rose Show how Jane Sanders, president of Burlignton College and wife of VT Senator Bernie Sanders (I) gave her only 15 minutes to vacate the office she had worked in for the last 5 years. We also hear from Greg Guma, our politics man and, incidentally a former employee of the college. He provides us with a historical perspective on the institutional problems that Burlington College has experienced since its inception in 1972.
