[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> This is actually the main reason I wanted to reach out today. I met
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> with our Dean of Students at xxxxxxxx yesterday, and after I
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> presented the situation and identified the individual involved as
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> a faculty member (department chair), I was clearly assured
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> that she has no authority over our organization, Dr. Stallman, or
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> the event itself, nor any ability to cancel it. Per the Dean's own
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> words "you can literally bring anyone you want here as an RSO,
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> and nobody can do anything but protest it outside." (RSO is a
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> registered student organization)
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> 
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> In addition, we were granted council protection. This means the
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> university will assign and pay 25 students to attend the event,
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> with the explicit responsibility of ensuring Dr. Stallman has a
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> quiet and uninterrupted space to speak. If anyone attempts
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> to disrupt the talk or stage a protest inside the classroom, the
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> Dean assured me that they will be promptly removed by
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> council staff and, if necessary, GTPD. We don't want to advertise
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> this as it will likely only enrage RMS's haters even more.
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> 
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> The faculty member in question has also made some rather
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> concerning public posts, and her account of events changed
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> when I attempted to ask her about them directly. The Dean of
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> Students explained that by making public accusations while
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> using her name and university title, she looks to have violated
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> university policy. As a result, the matter will likely need to be
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> forwarded to the xxxxxxxx for further review. I'm not sure what
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> will come of it, but it's super frustrating that a faculty member
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> thought she could step in the way of students paying her salary
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> due to her own views.
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> 
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> Long story short, we have the universitys full support, and
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> were now in a position to formally address the situation if
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> needed. Importantly, I havent said a word to her or acknowledged
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> since her behavior began, and in hindsight, that was the right call.
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> Ill admit it was tempting to publicly vent about how weve been
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> treated simply for inviting someone to speak about technology,
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> at an institute of technology, but its genuinely reassuring to have
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> confirmation that weve done nothing wrong and that the
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> administration is standing behind us.
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> 
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> We're not backing down anytime soon, and will continue to fight
[20:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	> for software & hardware freedom - and advocate for justice for RMS!
