...Graduate School of Design continues to shudder through the 1971-72 academic year. Despite last month's dismissal of grievances brought by three senior GSD professors against Dean Maurice D. Kilbridge, factionalism within the School has scarcely subsided. Continued chicanery in the two-year appeal proceeding of Chester W. Hartman '57--which reached a new nadir last week when the administration admitted it had violated its own ground rules in selecting a committee to hear his appeal and said it would start again from scratch--was matched by the mishandling of the appeal case of another assistant professor, Eliahu Romanoff...
...Hartman case probably shows the Design School at its wrongheaded worst. It is inherently unjust to have one party to a dispute select the committee to adjudicate that dispute; but beyond this, the GSD administration--charged with choosing Hartman's review committee--now concedes to breaking the ground rules for selecting that committee. And the ad hoc procedures it designed last May became necessary after the original grievance procedures--embodied in the Rogers Motion of May 1970--proved unworkable...
...Hartman said he will further respond to Rogers sometime this week. He added that Rogers told him to have a list of his nominees for the reformation of the review committee by February 23, and that the GSD faculty will select a new list of 20 at its March 3 meeting
...following memorandum was just to Peter P. Rogers, associate professor of City Planning on January 11 by Chester W. Hartman '57 for presentation to the Graduate School of Design Faculty in anticipation of today's faculty meeting. The decision last week by Rogers and Maurice D. Killbridge, dean of the GSD, to begin Hartman's appeal proceeding again from scratch derived largely from Hartman's contentions in this memorandum, released to the Crimson by Hartman yesterday. Hartman, a former assistant professor of City Planning at the GSD, is currently on the faculty of design at the University of California...
...inherently unjust and based. The GSD Faculty certainly cannot be said to be impartial or indifferent in this matter. A substantial part of the Faculty was directly involved in the decision not to renew my contract; many if not most others have personal or political feelings about "the Hartman case;" and as a corporate body it would be unusual if you would not be relieved to have that decision vindicated by an outside body. In recognition of these potential biases you stipulated that no member of the GSD Faculty could serve on this committee. Yet the nomination and election procedures...
