Maybe I shouldn't have started this blog now, not with everything that's been going on.

We have a college discipline board meeting again today, about that drinking in the dormitory case (good thing it is moving forward, and with the correct steps taken to ensure objectivity among the members) and the pictures in a biology or anatomy book in the library being used for pornographic entertainment.

In fact, I brought my net book here to the room hoping to be able to finish this post before they arrive.

Thirty minutes after this ends, we also have to get ready to go to the hills of green campus for the silver jubilee celebration of the brother president, where people seem to be assuming we will have three hours travel time going there.

The past few days, since Friday, have been a roller coaster of emotions. I was planning to come up with another metaphor such as an amplitude modulation signal, but that does not have the same impact.

I find it funny that someone is complaining about employer-employee relations from their end when at the same time, I get inappropriate text messages from them, things you do not usually send your boss if you had even the least bit concern that you could get fired for the slightest disrespect.

Not only that, but there are also constant apologies on the most inane things, while to other things where the boss is already replying abruptly, there is just an illogical kind of defense. Sure there is also initiative on some things (such as commissions for employees), but for others, it has to be consulted with the boss, like contacting the landlady or correcting the aforementioned and rescinded commission.

@@ Again in the spirit of train of consciousness, let me go back to the complaint about the book in the library with naked pictures.

What happened was that the librarian called the discipline officer and directed him to the couple looking over the book.

The discipline officer, with the mindset guilty until proven innocent, asked them what they were doing.

They said it was research of a certain subject, but when the discipline officer went over to verify, they changed it into another subject.

This new teacher said that the topic was not yet approved, so sure the students could scan in the library.

The discipline board, sadly cannot give sanction to the students for a book available in the library.

But before we can do that, first we have to ask the librarian for her official statement, since there is a possibility that the students can just be cited for disturbing the sanctity of the library.

What is funny is that the community, Catholics and liberals, are divided on the issue as to if the students should be charged.

We are also unsure if the discipline board should stop at just saying the students could not be prosecuted for looking at books available in the library, or if we should say if the librarian does not want her next complaints ignored, that she should take those books off of the circulation section and into reserve.

Session 2881 does not want to entertain the idea, suggested by one faculty, that the books were placed out there as bait. Class dismissed.
