Open Letter to the University of Rochester Board of

Trustees
Regarding Sexual Harassment at the University of Rochester
We, the undersigned, are faculty members at colleges and universities. Central to
our role as professors is interacting with students. Faculty members hold
substantial power and sway over those who learn from them, work for them, and
seek their counsel and advice in the pursuit of professional advancement. It is
imperative that professors fully acknowledge and respect this imbalance of power,
and do everything within their capacity to treat those whose futures they affect
with fairness, sensibility, and constructive support. When professors fail to do so, it
is the universitys responsibility to step in and ensure that all members of the
campus community are protected.

We hereby express our profound disappointment with the administration of the

University of Rochester (UR) in their response to the allegations of misconduct by
Dr. Florian Jaeger in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at the UR.
We are deeply concerned that President Seligman and his administration failed to
adequately respond to claims of predatory and manipulative behavior until those
claims were made public in an EEOC complaint. Instead of protecting individuals
who came forward and enforcing the Universitys values, the administration sought
to diminish the reported events and created a hostile environment for the victims,
their advocates, and many other members of the campus community.

The UR has abrogated its ultimate responsibility to protect and advance the
interests of its most important constituency its students by supporting the
predator and intimidating the victims and advocates in this case. We strenuously
object to the URs treatment of our respected colleagues. We hope that the EEOC
complaint will bring some sense of justice to all of those involved, and a change in
both the culture and leadership of the university. In the present circumstances,
we cannot in good conscience encourage our students to pursue educational or
employment opportunities at the University of Rochester.

We urge you, as UR Trustees, to think broadly and deeply about the kinds of
changes you are committed to making, given the behavior that the UR
administration has tolerated and its retaliatory responses to the attempts of faculty
to protect their students. As members of the academy, we are committed to
supporting our colleagues who are working to safeguard gender equality and civil
rights at the UR, and we will continue to be active, strong, and persistent advocates
1
against sexual harassment in all of its forms on our own campuses. We hope that
you are committed to action in service of these values as well.

The signatures below were collected as of November 19, 2017.
