Thanks to the courage of Prof @lpachter, who made public @UCBerkeley inaction over the sexual harassment of postdoc Barbara and workplace hostility he faced at the hands of Prof Terry Speed. The matter has been resolved with Prof Speed agreeing to resignhttps://twitter.com/lpachter/status/1010259786934284288?s=19 …
I'd like to reiterate that the bravery of survivors of sexual harassment is commendable, but professionally and personally costly. Putting the onus on survivors to report misconduct and pushing them to go public in order to progress their case is corrosive & counterproductive.
Orgs that draw out the process of waiting for a fair investigation & outcome (2 years in this case) are unethical and dangerous. Forcing survivors to go public is a failure to provide a safe working environment. Privileging the careers of abusers is hurting academia & science.
Hopefully this is a significant consideration for the new Australian Inquiry into Sexual Harassment
