To the Editor:
For those of you that have been following the "selection" of our new Provost closely, it will come as no surprise that former Provost James Wright has been re-appointed for another year as Provost. Despite resigning after faculty members raised objections that the appointment process had been circumvented by the direct selection of Wright by President Freedman, Wright has once again taken the reigns to be Provost for another year. I wrote a column concerning the bypassing of this process a few weeks ago and I want to respond both to those who responded in The Dartmouth against me, and to continue my opposition and the public discourse of what it means when due process is ignored.
