Kate Rocklein says she was removed from her roles at university’s nursing school because she spoke out to warn students about sexual violence
A Queen’s University nursing professor who was fired from her administrative role and suspended from teaching alleges she is a victim of discrimination and says the university’s decisions followed her attempts to warn nursing students about the risk of sexual assault.
But the university frames it as an administrative issue about a professor who lacks the right kind of skills to lead, and a teacher who misled students and failed to meet her professional obligations. The case is now the subject of a workplace investigation. Queen’s said it has no data to support that statement, and Kingston Health Sciences Centre said the same.
Prof. Rocklein alleges she was suspended and fired from her roles because she spoke out to warn students about sexual violence. “My impression is that it’s just a really unimaginative way of trying to shut someone up,” Prof. Rocklein said in an interview. “I can’t be sliced bread one day and then talk about sexual assault and be complete garbage the next day. That’s not how life works.”
In a separate letter, Dr. Philpott said Prof. Rocklein was alleged to have misled students, made them feel unsafe and used lecture time inappropriately to discuss personal issues. She was also accused of not making good use of teaching time, not making reasonable efforts to inform students of class cancellations and failing to provide timely information about the format and location of an exam.
