I got a letter today from the registrar, the women who was to investigate the complaint I made about the email that said; "its one thing to be deviant its another to try to convince people that it is ok". The letter I got was a copy of a report sent to the President. It details the investigation process, which I now realize was held up solely by the lecturer who sent the email. The registrar found that it was resonable to "construe (a) that the message was directed for her. . . (b) that the message was accusing her of wrongdoing . . . it was not unreasonable for Ms Marven to take offence at the message."

the way he tried to back peddle out of this one is great he said that "he has not fully withdrawn Ms Marven's letter from the envelope, has not see Ms Marven's name and email address at the bottom of the letter but had addressed his responce to the e-mail address on the sticker attached to the top of the letter." brillant claim ignorance but allas it didn't work and he was asked to appologize. He refused to do so and said that "it would conflict with his principles to offer an apology".

the final line of the report says "following my conversation with Mr Byrnes, I fear tht he may not agree to conciliation, and disciplinary action may be indicated."

boyah!

thats such a strange line 'diciplinary action may be indicated' . . . thats her recommendation. indicate diciplinary action. INDICATE . . .

lets see if it takes another two months to finish this off.
