On today's Out d'Coup LIVE special I talk with Steve Oross, Associate Professor of Psychology at Kutztown University. Eralier this year, Oross had a heart transplant and has spent the last six months rehabilitating and recovering from his surgery. While he has made a remarkable recovery, his status as a recent heart transplant patient puts him in a "severe risk" status when it comes to the risk of dying if he contracts COVID-19.
When his doctors cleared him to return to work as long as it was remote teaching, Oross sought out direction for Kutztown University administration and human resources for shifting his classes from in-person to on-line for the fall semester. What followed was a devastating and cruel story of a university administration that has forced Oross to choose between his life and his livelihood. His story is equal parts devastating and enraging.
Don't miss this show and please share it as widely as you can. And there is more you can do to help:
We will have additional resources and calls for action in the coming days and weeks.
