I work in higher ed. Upon the last big promotion cycle, I was passed over for a Director position. This position was instead given to a less tenured person with only a high school education. No certs, just the best friend of the boss. Meanwhile, I'm sitting here with three degrees, enrolled in a PhD program at the higher ed institution I work at. 🧐 Higher education not valuing the higher education of their employees. Doomed.
Not sure where you are but a teachers union here wouldn't allow those shinanegans. Is it different at University level?
Unfortunately, we're a private university, so yes.
