The problems between valle and the district began in 2004 with a series of seemingly minor conflicts between valle and Stone. Despite being the department chair, under Cuesta’s hierarchy, Stone possessed no authority over valle or the drama department. Nonetheless, multiple attempts to exercise control over, and even punish valle, between the years of 2004 and 2007 are detailed in the arbitration report.
Some of the attempts at control seem to stem from outright prudery. In 2005, for example, he encouraged valle to eliminate the word “vagina” from a promotional poster for her production of The Vagina Monologues, a fundraiser for the women’s shelter in San Luis Obispo.
WTF?
