I think it is better to extend this research and do interviews with students who lost their chance to continue their study due to various injustices which happened for them due to their specific race by their group members and supervisor. As a person who from was attended the international educational system of Finland, I was the witness the hidden and continuous discrimination in the academic places, bullying, and misbehavior (mostly by European and non-European seniors) against the newly hired students. Many left their study because they didn't get proper support from HR or their supervisors and decided to don’t continue the job in a toxic place. I am sure there are many non-European students who are faced misbehavior and injustice in Finland academies and there is no exact rate from them because most of them due to some circumstances forced to don’t complain from the group (mostly are thinking they will need a reference letter in the future so it is better to don’t destroy all the bridges of the behind).<br /><br />maybe additional research at least helps other young and fresh mind students to think wisely about Finland or any other country before departure to them for study as it is not only the issue of just getting a Ph.D., it is about the future of their academic life. The wrong decision just ruins their 20 years of study and later due to lack of proper support they can’t get a Ph.D. or a proper job easily. <br />Actually, the job in Finland for an international student except IT and computer sector literally has been limited to midnight post job, packing vegetables in -4 degree, delivery and cleaning services. getting a suitable job related to your profession is really rare. In Finland, you can see the dentists who became housewives and just spend time at home, engineers who are doing cleaning toilets, or the researchers who after the end of their contracts in university, they attended old care centers. <br />If you worked with another professor in Finland and due to some issues such as the bad environment of your workplace or your displeasure you left there, the rate of getting another position by another teacher will fall dramatically. maybe they are thinking it is possible they face a problem with you too or you are known to the educational rules of Finland and they cant expect you work more than normal!!! Fresh non-European students usually work instead of 2,3 students which means more experiments more tasks and less payment, they even do experiments till late and even holidays. <br />It is a crime that presenting fake golden results brings young students with fresh ideas and hopes to a country and finally leaves them without support. when a poor student even cant get the chance to complain on time as she/he trusts the supervisor who says everything will be solved. parents sent children abroad with the wish that they are going to study in the best country with the best educational system, they even support them financially while they don't know that child will hide from society because of the fails which weren't his guilt.<br />making a person feel low and valueless is the output of the system which doesn’t have proper monitoring on the educational groups.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28080901.post-43904788154429057362021-05-05T11:08:33.207+00:002021-05-05T11:08:33.207+00:00I was a student of Carl’s for 3 years, back in the...I was a student of Carl’s for 3 years, back in the 90s.

I started documenting, and have spoken to an academic attorney. I refuse to go back to that school. I lost a semester. Fortunately my doctor took me out of there on a medical leave because the abuse was aggravating my depression to the point of becoming suicidal. <br />It was horrible how badly the students would be treated including hazing, verbal abuse and sharing academic progress with comments like, " you better shape up; you are on a full scholarship and your work is not meeting expectatons," things like that. Is that a FERPA violation in a graduate school? Anyway I have filed a report, sent it to the Dean of Students and if I am not responded to appropriately filings with EVERYONE, legal action and press is coming into play, ENOUGH OF THIS CRAP IS ENOUGH.

He has not got a single paper published in the past 6 years. He keeps checking the results of students years after they leave.

He also gives negative reference letters to kill future prospects of his students.<br />He absolutely refuses to help his students in any way possible. <br />He is a psychopath who is jealous of his students and wishes to destroy their career.<br /> I hope no other student gets caught in his clutches....he absolutely deserves no students.

I was denied marks which constitutes academic dishonesty. I was deliberately failed in clinical assessments, which as a result costed me my whole career. This betrayal was jointly perpetrated by a gang of university lecturers and their accomplices in the hospitals. The core module in which I was failed was vital for registration with Allied Health Professionals Council, and eventually, because of this dishonesty of my lecturers, I could not practice the profession towards which I dedicated my whole life. I now make living as warehouse operative, despite having transcript of BSc in diagnostic radiography.<br /><br />Kind Regards <br /><br />Distressed <br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01595930035848665306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28080901.post-49927429249309065092018-10-22T08:48:55.373+00:002018-10-22T08:48:55.373+00:00Lol.

This is doubly destructive, as the productive professors have to spend time defending themselves against absurd allegations and processes, writing complaints to HR and others to document the misconduct of the less-productive professors, and otherwise wasting time that could have been spent publishing more, talking with students, or spending time with family. Harassment should be grounds for termination, and I am willing to take a case on behalf of a harassed professor - someone needs to set a precedent, as it is so very destructive to the university setting and the targeted professors' lives. I am licensed to practice law in CA and WA. In addition, any attorney in good standing can enter pro hac vice in any state, so there is no limitation geographically, although local counsel is needed anywhere other than CA and WA. I would like to help someone, because if personal responsibility is established, perhaps it will change the norm of harassment and "mobbing" in the academic setting.

My supervisor made false accusations about me in the presence of the reviewing panel. The accusations were of an extreme kind. It was surprising, since up till then the relationship had been cordial. Fortunately, the chairperson ruled the supervisor out of line. The supervisor later apologised. I have had a long career in teaching and would have been fired if I had treated my students in this way. A few weeks later, a fellow Phd student in the same department was also up for review. I asked this student a few days ago how it went. "Horrible," the student said, and told me that the supervisor said, in front of the panel, "I don't give a shit about your project." There is something deeply disturbing about this kind of behaviour. I am of an age where I am unimpressed by these games. I suspect there are several things at play here: the spill-over from departmental and wider institutional politics, the struggles these supervising academics are having with their own projects, a certain professional jealousy in relation to wider workplace success and experience of some of the candidates, the pressure supervisors are put under by the institution to be efficient gatekeepers, and the warping of personality that seems to be happening to these academics. I had been enjoying my Phd journey immensely to that point, but the incidents have soured the experience. Our institution's compulsory research integrity module in its section on Ethics lays considerable emphasis on respect within the research environment. The module suggests what steps can be taken to seek redress. I am not entirely confident that that would be effective. The behaviour I have referred to is a brazen, bold flouting of that requirement. Fortunately, I have been able to communicate with an academic in another department who has been able to voice concerns to others in positions of influence.

He's admitted to sleeping with prostitutes. <br />2) He shouts, screams, threatens people with ruining their careers - and he tries very hard to do that too. He gossips, he lies, he badmouths, he's two faced. <br />3) He makes directly sexual comments to people and has even asked a PhD student out on a date. When she went to the graduate tutor for advice anonymously, word got to him and she was bullied even more. Other female staff member was so sick of his comments about her body, she complained to the university and eventually she left because her life became unbearable.

Better to move on and rebuild which is what I did. <br /><br />They (who will not be mentioned) will eventually reap what they sow. They have planted nothing so they will receive nothing as well.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28080901.post-66244785088217861462017-05-13T03:14:44.456+00:002017-05-13T03:14:44.456+00:00Yes, exactly!

My ex supervisors suddenly wanted me out of the university and my current supervisors don't reply to my emails! The PG tutors are with them! They exchange emails and then shame me over reporting them. They made me wait months before the viva! Invited unknown examiner. I have major corrections to do. Less than 6 months to go. And just two lazy replies saying we are busy. Delicate Peachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07972456560316780450noreply@blogger.com
