EGO 3

I like to think that my blog post EGO 1 preceding the EGO 2 post is a sufficient rebuttal to the writer who condemned my ego getting in the way of educating our children. Still, its gratifying to know that I apparently have other defenders out there. I was sent this email today concerning Mrs. Trowbridge’s indictment of Art and me.

Harry:

From http://www.duluthnewstribune.com/content/readers-view-duluth-schools-johnston-welty-are-just-feeding-their-egos:

Johnston, and now Welty, acts as if it’s OK to violate ethical guidelines, to expose confidential information and even to risk the sale of the Central High School property, all because they have cast themselves as “victims” and therefore rules don’t apply to them.

I don’t remember that you have acted as if it’s OK to risk the sale of the Central High School property all because you have cast yourself as a victim and therefore that pertinent rules didn’t apply to you. As I remember, you acknowledged that you inadvertently screwed up by divulging a proposed price for that property.

Gail Trowbridge represents herself as a professional writer (see http://gailtrowbridge.me/), but I wonder whether she hasn’t thus screwed up by that jumble of a sentence that I quoted.
