An ISU math professor could be fired after an  administrative law judge’s ruling.

Judge Carol Greta found Moulay Tidriri, a tenured associate math professor, showed “persistent and manifest neglect of faculty duties as presented in the faculty member’s position responsibility statement,” according to the judge’s findings.

In early August of 2013, Beate Schmittmann, dean of LAS, filed a formal complaint to Senior Vice President and Provost Jonathan Wickert against Tidriri that outlined a “pattern of alleged unacceptable performance in teaching, research in service.”

Schmittmann said Tidriri had been under-performing since 2008.

On Jan. 8, 2014, the Faculty Review Board made up of tenured professors, found that Tidriri’s “performance of duties in all three categories — teaching, research and service — had been unacceptable,” according to the court document.

Tidriri has 20 days to file an appeal to the administrative law judgebefore the firing becomes final.
