Comment: Dear Dr. France A. Cordova, I am teaching at National Cheng Kung University in Tainan Taiwan, which has academic exchanges with your university. This university has been involved in numerous human rights abuses over the years that it has refused to remedy or even apologize for. These include illegal dismissals, the denial of due process, defying legal rulings and directives from the Ministry of Education, and claiming foreign faculty do not have the rights of native faculty. The university even claimed foreign faculty had no right to appeal after it participated in an appeal and lost! A university should not be allowed to maintain academic exchanges with an American university if it does not respect human rights and principles of human rights (remedy, apology, compensation). Please inform me what my options are or what your university is willing to do on behalf of the rights of Americans at this university. Thank you. Professor Richard de Canio
