UO Spokesperson Tobin Klinger claims it's long-standing practice to treat OA's like faculty; but this conveniently overlooks a HUGE difference: OA's can (and are) routinely and easily "non-renewed" (a.k.a. "fired") from their positions all the time—sometimes (often?) with little legitimate reason other than not getting along with a superior. Try doing this to a tenured faculty member (even one who wears blackface).
