If...Gus, you say that you don't know Dr. Koehn. If you did, perhaps you would see him in a completely different light...I do know Dr. Koehn and certainly would never use the words conscientious, ethical or morally righteous in the same sentence with his name. I would be willing to bet that the Harvard School District did not take the consideration of his dismissal lightly as he was a tenured employee...perhaps there is more to this story than the "intestinal fortitude" you describe. In addition, Dr. Koehn is certainly no stranger to the courts...Check out the link below... http://wcca.wicourts.gov/courtRecordEvents.xsl;jsessionid=A0502C453E6DCEBB697B0EE9A2174352.render6?caseNo=2006FA000104&countyNo=28&cacheId=B70A1A801F9FAC142171E72D9F7FA1D4&recordCount=8&offset=5&linkOnlyToForm=false&sortDirection=ASC<br />Perhaps the Harvard School Disrict does have some explaining to do regarding Special Education policies, this will be determined following the investigation. But, don't be so quick to glorify Dr. Koehn....I seriously question whether or not he did "the right thing, for the right reasons" The Dr. Koehn I know would be more accurately described as the type of Whistleblower described here. "Whistleblowers are commonly seen as as "tattle tales" or "snitches," solely pursuing personal glory and fame" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whistleblower} Opinions based on fact are so much more reliable than those based on emotion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
