Black and Hispanic professors at Florida International University have slammed the university administration for allowing former President Mark Rosenberg to return to campus as a professor in the spring, after he resigned in January amid a harassment scandal.
The Hispanic Faculty Association and the Black Faculty Association sent separate emails to the FIU Board of Trustees, condemning its 12 members for not consulting faculty and other stakeholders regarding Rosenberg’s case. They also warned that putting him back in a classroom “disrespects women” and sends a “terrible message” to those who have been harassed.
Rosenberg didn’t respond to multiple requests from the Herald for comment via text, email and a phone call.
