Whereas President Bob Kerrey has forced donors and respected members of the community from the New School Board of Trustees;
Whereas President Bob Kerrey has presided over two failed caretaker administrations of the Actors Studio Drama School;
Whereas President Bob Kerrey has severed relations with the Actors Studio, putting an entire graduate division in jeopardy;
Whereas President Bob Kerrey has been derelict in his duties to search for deans, effectively rendering each graduate school\'s administration incapable of functioning;
Whereas President Bob Kerrey has used union-busting tactics in his dealings with the U.A.W. who represent 95% of the faculty at the university;
Whereas President Bob Kerrey has entertained, publicly, running for public office as candidate for Mayor, and as candidate for chairman of the Democratic Party;
Whereas President Bob Kerrey uses his bully pulpit as academic chairman to advocate United States policy diametrically opposed to the nature, history and honor of New School University and its community;
We, the undersigned, are resolved that President Bob Kerrey should submit his resignation effective immediately.
We respectfully submit this petition to the Trustees of New School University, as well as to President Bob Kerrey.
I honestly never thought this would gain this much steam when I first sat down to write it but here we are and it just feels overwhelming seeing so many people agree that enough is enough. It is wild to think about how far we have come while the administration just keeps acting like we are invisible (which is honestly just so typical of them). Time to actually get this in front of the board and force them to look at what we have built here.

TOTAL DISGRACE. He cares more about his own political career than the actual students here.

The school has gone downhill so fast since he took over. Enough is enough, time for fresh leadership.

He needs to resign. He is clearly not focused on the job he is actually being paid to do.
