U of O Watch mission, in the words of Foucault...

"One knows … that the university and in a general way, all teaching systems, which appear simply to disseminate knowledge, are made to maintain a certain social class in power; and to exclude the instruments of power of another social class. … It seems to me that the real political task in a society such as ours is to criticise the workings of institutions, which appear to be both neutral and independent; to criticise and attack them in such a manner that the political violence which has always exercised itself obscurely through them will be unmasked, so that one can fight against them." -- Foucault, debating Chomsky, 1971.

University of Ottawa men's hockey players to file class-action lawsuit -- Lawrence Greenspon representing all players who aren't facing charges

CBC News, Ottawa, January 13, 2015

Unless this is settled out-of-court, Allan Rock will have left his ugly mess with the next president for the next many years.

We look forward to Rock's secret internal report being eventually released as part of litigation. Will it justify wrecking the reputations and careers of 24 university athletes?
