“Charter schools association files ethics complaint against Rutgers professor, SOSNJ founder”

From the Star Ledger article:

The complaint, filed Monday lists a series of occasions in which Rubin either testified before the state Board of Education, wrote editorials or publicly expressed her opinions using her title as an associate professor at Rutgers University. In some cases, she was also acting as a volunteer for Save our Schools NJ, which advocates against charter schools, the complaint says.
The NJCSA said it previously attempted to engage Rubin on the merits of her arguments, but said it chose to file the ethics complaint after her recent report on the demographics of charter schools. Rubin has said she will release two more reports on charter schools.
“The NJCSA has filed this complaint today to ensure appropriate corrective action is taken before Dr. Sass Rubin releases her personal views as Rutgers research and creates further embarrassment for Rutgers University,” the association said in a statement.
Rutgers does not comment on personnel matters, spokesperson EJ Miranda said.

  • That reminds me, Laura. You should add a disclaimer to all of your public statements indicating they do not reflect the collective opinion of the school board of which you are a member.

    I don't see any merit in the suit against Ms. Rubin, but what I described above is a slam dunk under the Code of Ethics for School Board Members.
