Native Studies prof considers hunger strike – The Aquinian

A dispute over a social work course has Native Studies professor Roland Chrisjohn mulling the idea of a hunger strike.

“No, I’m not talking about my fast until I’m sure myself that it’s a fast,” said Chrisjohn in an email to The Aquinian.

A social media post, made by a colleague of Chrisjohn, surfaced last week, citing the professor’s concerns about the university’s direction for the class. It said the professor has been on a hunger strike since Feb.1 because he was asked to teach a research methodology course but later “his signed contract was summarily declared null.”
