Paperback. Etat : Very Good. In William Hart's Never Fade Away an English Department offers writing courses that jettison from school immigrant and minority students who can't meet the department's narrow standards of competency. The students have entrance-level SAT scores, but they're disappearing in droves through the trap-door of their introductory English classes. An untenured and unruly instructor refuses to cooperate when the Department fails one of his students, a Vietnamese math major with a genius for storytelling. The teacher manages to keep the woman in school, but is fired for his defiance. To fight back he files a grievance, which mushrooms into a public hearing.
