Who, then, is officially harassed? Who is granted formal permission to consider themselves so? Administrations establish and control Equity Offices: they then point to these overloaded offices and say: See! We don't have harassment on our campus! We have a harassment policy, processes, and procedures!²¹

Our situations and the reprisals are "ongoing." The last two years have been a period of anonymous threats, escalating hostility and retaliation, continued threat of legal action, and ongoing pressure from an impending civil suit filed by four of the tenured men against the CBC and targeting the CCC students and instructor (trial date is September 1996). The students and instructor have been driven from the department, Somer Brodribb was suspended for a week without pay beginning International Women's Day, 1995, and the anti-equity president of the university was reappointed in July 1995. Even the external review's recommendation that a female chair be appointed has been disregarded?²² We have heard nothing from the Equity or the new Anti-Harassment Office which seem to have a PRIVATE/KEEP OUT sign.

And yet we have not been forgotten. In the last year, the Director of Equity Issues, the former chair of the Faculty Women's Caucus, and Marilyn Callahan (fomer internal reviewer) and the University Secretary were members of the Conference Planning Committee for the February 22, 1995 University of Victoria Women's Conference,²³ which presented an award to Liliane Morgan, a former member of the Board of Governor. In January 1994 letter published in the administration's newspaper, Morgan called on the Board of Governors to silence the CCC, issue a deadline for retraction of the report unless the names were named and if refused, to "charge [us] in a court of law for mischief, at the very least" so that we could "move on and get a real life." According to the award winner: "The University, because of the siren song of 'political correctness,' has pandered to this fascist-leaning group by allowing them to waste valuable time, resources and funds of this University. ... It is insane to suggest they can solve the problems between men and women by having all-women committees. Along with the possibility of being loaded with misanthropes, it would, at the least, have a distinctly anti-male bias."²⁴

We were also amazed when University of Victoria harassment policy advisor Barb Whittington told the local newspaper in July 1995 that Political Science departments actually "try to really encourage critics" and feminist students-an apology and erasure of women which is part of the professional appeasement strategy,²⁵ This again is a real contrast to the support we received from groups such as the staff of The Kenora Sexual Assault Centre who wrote in a letter of October 25, 1993, "The educational institutions have been woman-hating too long and they are one of the strongest oppressors of women."
