Although Mahina State administrators acknowledged faculty had the freedom to teach and advise as they thought best, no one was permitted to tell a student they should not major in engineering. Not when our STEM Education grant was up for renewal next year.
When our administration started to use the professor-rating site to evaluate faculty performance, we stepped up to power-user status, flooding the site with positive evaluations for ourselves and for one another. Thanks to this strategy, Pat, Emma, and I were the three highest-ranked faculty members at Mahina State University.
This is not where I expected to end up. By “this,” I mean an eight-hour team-building retreat in the Administrative Complex at remote Mahina State University, in Mahina, Hawaii where, according to our radio spots, “Your Future Begins Tomorrow.”
