In the wake of Professor Tom Meixner’s killing Oct. 5, University of Arizona President Robbins and his administration decided not to shut down normal operations, which would have let us as a community take a moment to step away from our routines and grieve together.
People are also reading… I am the victim of a workplace murder. And so too are the tens of thousands of students, faculty, and staff of the University of Arizona. All of us. Instead of ceasing all normal operations and bringing us together as a community in response to this act of violence, President Robbins and his administration have given us a menu of choices. It is up to us as individuals to choose what is right for us and to presumably take responsibility for those choices.
I cannot help feeling that by allowing business to go on as usual, the leadership of my university is asking me to accept this killing as normal. The message seems to be that, while tragic, these events will happen. And we, the administration, will provide resources for dealing with the psychic damage that they may cause. But the show must go on. It’s all just part of life in the 21st century where instead of flying cars we have the normalization of workplace murders and mass killings.
senyorreporter Agree, failed the uarizona community on so many levels. Thank you Tim Steller for your reporting on this tragedy and for sharing the GoFundMe
Exactly.
Yep
100%! Prof. Braitberg is absolutely correct. President Robbins failed the University & the entire Tucson community. What Prof. Braitberg is referring to in his article is the Second Victim. Anyone connected to that tragedy was a second victim. To miss & normalize this was wrong.
