Question:
1. Sidney Nevel is a new director of a small public library. The library is a private corporation run by seven trustees who have complete control over the library:
they hire the director, set the budget, set policy, etc.
One of the trustees, Sam Bark, often comes to Sidney’s desk or into her office to share a joke. These jokes are slightly off-color and Sidney finds them offensive. Sam has her trapped. She tries to laugh along, just to get the guy out of her office. Sam is also a big supporter of the library both politically and financially. He has donated funds to support programs for children that the regular budget could not support. Sidney feels in a bind, she doesn’t know what to do. Should she do something? Think about this situation and what you have read in this chapter and write up recommendations for Sidney.
