| Abstract: | Incidents of workplace violence are becoming all too common at colleges and universities. Generally, one thinks of shootings and assaults in relation to campus workplace violence. However, mobbing and bullying of faculty by other faculty are types of workplace violence that, while very common, are rarely discussed or reported. This article raises awareness of the problem, profiles victims, describes stages, and suggests tactics for addressing the issue. |
