CYBERBULLIES ON CAMPUS Darby Dickerson * I. INTRODUCTION A new challenge facing educators is how to deal with the high-tech incivility that has crept onto our campuses. Technology has changed the way students approach learning, and has spawned new forms of rudeness. Students play computer games, check e-mail, watch DVDs, and participate in chat rooms during class. They answer ringing cell phones and dare to carry on conversations mid-lesson. Dealing with these types of incivilities is difficult enough, but another, more sinister e-culprit-the cyberbully-has also arrived on law school campuses. Cyberbullies exploit technology to control and intimidate others on campus.' They use web sites, blogs, and IMs2 to malign professors and classmates.3 They craft e-mails that are offensive, boorish, and cruel. They blast professors and administrators for grades given and policies passed; and, more often than not, they mix in hateful attacks on our character, motivations, physical attributes, and intellectual abilities.4 They disrupt classes, cause tension on campus, and interfere with our educational mission.

  • In the Shadow of the Law: the Silence of Workplace Abuse
    IN THE SHADOW OF THE LAW: THE SILENCE OF WORKPLACE ABUSE PhD Candidate: Ms Allison Jean Ballard Supervisors: Professor Patricia Easteal, AM Assistant Professor Bruce Baer Arnold Month and Year of Submission: January 2019 Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Law (941AA) The University of Canberra, Bruce, Australian Capital Territory, Australia Acknowledgements Somewhat uncommonly perhaps, I have been fortunate to have had the same two supervisors throughout my PhD journey. It has been a privilege and a huge pleasure to be guided by, and to learn from my primary supervisor (now Emeritus) Professor Patricia Easteal AM and my secondary supervisor, Assistant Professor Bruce Baer Arnold. Patricia in particular has been my rock. Without Patricia’s amazing kindness, guidance, encouragement, and friendship, I would have ‘thrown in the towel’ and left the PhD boxing ring long ago. Without her support, my well-developed ability to procrastinate (God, help me to finish everything I sta….)1 and to be distracted (God, help me to keep my mind on th– … Look a bird – ing at a time)2 would have reigned supreme. So, my immeasurable thanks to the extraordinary Patricia. Bruce, ever pragmatic and focused on the end game, reminded me to stay focused, helping me to tow the academic line, not take off on too many ‘flights of fancy’, and to check my footnotes! It has been a rollercoaster journey that has spanned three different careers across six different sectors. During this time, I have also started a pro bono virtual legal practice, and established, with my dear friend, and fellow academic, traveller, and shoe-shopper, Doris Bozin, one of the first university-based health-justice legal advice clinics.

From grade schools to colleges, from workplaces to professional sports, stories about bullying and its debilitating and sometimes life-threatening impact have become part of everyday communications. Leading print and digital newspapers have dedicated feature articles on the subject. The Internet, through social media sites and blogs, has posted numerous comments about school and workplace bullying. In July of 2010, Parade magazine, a syndicated periodical distributed with Sunday editions of newspapers across the country, asked its readers if “workplace bullying should be illegal?” More than 90 percent of the respondents said yes. As recent as February 2014, USA Today, a major national publication, published an article entitled, “Hurt Can Go On Even After Bullying Stops.” The article indicated that early intervention is key to stop bullying because the health effects can persist even after bullying stops.

Il ne fait pas de doute que ce phénomène réfère à une forme particulière de harcèlement, que l’on pourrait associer à du harcèlement moral ou psychologique, mais dont la finalité revêt un caractère plus « total » dans la mesure où elle vise l’expulsion de la victime de son milieu de travail. Le mobbing se distingue toutefois d’autres formes de harcèlement en raison de sa dynamique particulière qui engage tant l’organisation que les collègues des victimes. Rumeurs, commentaires désobligeants et atteintes à la réputation sont autant de manifestations du mobbing susceptibles d’affecter gravement le climat de travail dans nos universités, malgré leur caractère insidieux. À la lumière de ces spécificités, ce rapport n’est donc pas une « autre » ressource sur le harcèlement, mais bien un document qui vise à mieux circonscrire le phénomène singulier et peu étudié qu’est le mobbing en milieu académique.

  • Support and Mistreatment by Public School Principals As Experienced by Teachers: a Statewide Survey
    MIAMI UNIVERSITY The Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation We hereby approve the Dissertation of Diane Sue Burnside Huffman Candidate for the Degree: Doctor of Philosophy ___________________________________________ Director Dr. Thomas S. Poetter ___________________________________________ Reader Dr. William J. Boone ___________________________________________ Reader Dr. Kathleen Knight Abowitz ___________________________________________ Reader Dr. Andrew M. Saultz ABSTRACT SUPPORT AND MISTREATMENT BY PUBLIC SCHOOL PRINCIPALS AS EXPERIENCED BY TEACHERS: A STATEWIDE SURVEY by Diane Sue Burnside Huffman Skillful teachers are key to developing good schools. Because of this, understanding the school as a workplace is necessary to investigate why teachers leave and what encourages them to stay. The relationship between the principal, as the boss, and the teacher, as the employee, is one under- researched component of the school workplace which is important for developing a broad understanding of teacher turnover. This cross-sectional study uses a definition of principal mistreatment behaviors from the literature in the development of an original mixed method survey and a random sample of teachers from public schools in the State of Ohio to investigate how often principal mistreatment behaviors are experienced by a random sample of teachers in K-12 public schools. Mistreatment behaviors were paired with an opposite principal support behavior using Likert-style response options and were specifically focused on the 2012-2013 school year. Open- ended questions were included which asked for more general experience with principal mistreatment behaviors, effects on the teachers health, opinions about school culture and student bullying, and the effects of principal treatment behaviors on the teachers sense of efficacy and job satisfaction.

  • Workplace Bullying and Harassment
    Law and Policy Remedies for Workplace Bullying in Higher Education: An Update and Further Developments in the Law and Policy John Dayton, J.D., Ed. D.* A dark and not so well kept secret lurks the halls of higher education institutions. Even among people who should certainly know better than to tolerate such abuse, personnel misconduct in the form of workplace bullying remains a serious but largely neglected problem.1 A problem so serious it can devastate academic programs and the people in them. If allowed to maraud unchecked, workplace bullies can poison the office culture; shut down progress and productivity; drive off the most promising and productive people; and make the workplace increasingly toxic for everyone who remains in the bully dominated environment.2 A toxic workplace can even turn deadly when stress begins to take its all too predictable toll on victims’ mental and physical health, or interpersonal stress leads to acts of violence.3 Higher education institutions are especially vulnerable to some of the most toxic forms of workplace bullying. When workplace bullies are tenured professors they can become like bullying zombies seemingly invulnerable to efforts to stop them while faculty, staff, students, and even university administrators run for cover apparently unable or unwilling to do anything about the loose-cannons that threaten to sink them all. This article examines the problem of workplace bullying in higher education; reviews possible remedies; and makes suggestions for law and policy reforms to more effectively address this very serious but too often tolerated problem in higher education. * This article is dedicated to the memory of Anne Proffitt Dupre, Co-Director of the Education Law Consortium, Professor of Law, Law Clerk for the U.S.

The new documentary film BULLY, directed by Sundance and Emmy-award winning filmmaker Lee Hirsch, brings human scale to this startling statistic, offering an intimate, unflinching look at how bullying has touched five kids and their families.

    Wen Huifang Understanding Young Adults’ Perception of Their Childhood Bullying and Victimization: A Phenomenological Research Master’s Thesis in Education FACULTY OF EDUCATION Education and Globalization 2018 University of Oulu Faculty of Education Understanding Young Adults’ Perceptions of Their Childhood Bullying and Victimization: A Phenomenological Research (Huifang Wen) Master’s Thesis in Education, 114 pages, 2 appendices April 2018 Childhood bullying, and victimization is a worldwide issue in the field of education. We now through research that bullying has longitudinal negative influences upon former victims’ psychological, physical, and economic circumstances decades after the incidence of childhood bullying. However, not enough studies have been conducted to address these longitudinal unfair experiences, including the study of the underlying reasons of its longitudinal continuity upon victims and trans-generational potential through social cognitive theory. Neither has there been enough research focusing on the victims’ perspective, to explore their current cognition of childhood bullying experiences and to find proper guidance and treatment for their PTSD symptoms. Different from previous quantitative studies which reveal the longitudinal psychological consequences correlating their childhood bullying suffering through specific variables, this qualitative research is aimed at giving victims a voice regarding their individual experiences and present a holistic picture of how individuals experienced bullying in childhood and furthermore exploring how can victims empower and heal themselves through cognitive restructuring. Phenomenology is employed to explore and present the subjective reality of their lived experiences. This study examined 7 young adults, aged between 26-30 years, who presently study in the University of Oulu and shared the experience of bullying in childhood.
