The discussion concludes with Council Member Dinowitz inquiring about the evidence required to hold faculty accountable for violative conduct.
- Chancellor Rodriguez explains that evidence would primarily come from conversations about what happens in the classroom.
- Factors considered include whether the class veered off-topic and if balanced perspectives were provided.
- The process involves investigating reports of faculty conduct that goes beyond the scope of their syllabus.
- The importance of providing a balanced perspective on discussed topics is emphasized.

2:12:36
What sorts of evidence is required, for that sort of to hold faculty and others accountable for that violative conduct?

2:12:51
Right?
2:12:52
That that, as you mentioned, is a class about subject x, and we've gone into, in in a conversation that bureau topic that there was no sense of providing balanced perspective on on on the things being, being discussed.
2:13:08
I mean, those are some of the things that would be used, in that in that case.
Eric Dinowitz
