Hispanic leaders seek answers for dismissal of Community College of Denver President Christine Johnson (the first Hispanic woman to head a college in Colorado)
Tagged: Colorado, DenverPosted on: July 11th, 2007“Some prominent Hispanic leaders today called for an investigation into the dismissal of Community College of Denver President Christine Johnson, seeking assurances her ouster was not politically motivated.
“I am not confident the process leading to the dismissal was fair,” said state Sen. Paula Sandoval, D-Denver. “My perception is Dr. Johnson was not treated with the dignity and respect she deserved.”
Sandoval was among a dozen community leaders who urged Gov. Bill Ritter and state lawmakers to delve into the controversy surrounding the removal of Johnson, the first Hispanic woman to head a college in Colorado.”
