No Confidence Vote and Planned Faculty Trustee Changes at Linfield
By
Linfield University’s arts and sciences faculty voted no confidence in President Miles Davis and David Baca, chair of the university’s Board of Trustees, this week, 59 to 11. The resolution on which the vote was based calls for the leaders’ resignations, referencing the Linfield board’s ongoing sexual harassment and anti-Semitism scandal. The “words and actions of President Miles Davis and Chair David Baca have created an intimidating and hostile work environment, harmed members of the Linfield community, and damaged Linfield’s reputation,” the resolution says. “Attempts to work collaboratively, constructively, and proactively” with Davis and Baca “to address issues of concern have been met with censorship, punishment, secrecy and defamation.”
