Follow-up on the FSI economics resignations: Dana Stryk explains why she left
A while back I posted here about two economics instructors resigning from FSI.
For anyone who was interested in that story, Dana Stryk, PhD has now gone live on Substack. Her first video lays out why she left.
She frames it in three buckets.
First, trying to teach economics under an administration doing things that run counter to basic economic fact. At some point you’re stuck trying to figure out how to skip the PhD-level explanation and fake your way around the obvious.
Second, changes at FSI meant she was being pushed more toward teaching policy and spinning the administration’s line, not just teaching economics.
Third, the toxic work environment with her direct chain of command.
That’s why she left.
The reason she’s talking about it now is because, since she resigned, her old office has been doing cheetah flips trying to write its own narrative, one that is counter to fact. They’re trying to make it sound like normal attrition. It wasn’t.
Worth watching if you followed the earlier posts.
