Monday morning: The occupants of the Steele residence had a wonderful weekend. The atmosphere was very laid back. The two women of the house lost all their inhibitions over the weekend. They evolved into their new-found persona with social nudity at the forefront. The two women have decided as they conversed, they will spend as much time around the house nude as they can. That is with the approval of their significant other. On the agenda today is the meeting with the Administration to find out where Emily stands with her ultimatum, she presented last Monday to the Dean.
Frank was at the counter with the newspaper to check the local news per usual. Emily just showered and entered the kitchen nude to pour her morning coffee. She sat at the breakfast bar across from her son. Lesley came in for a cup of coffee she was nude and sat next to Emily across from Frank.
Craig came in he was very concerned about his wife's moral compass. It eroded way past normal conduct on route to total exhibitionism. "Emily, I know we had fun over the weekend, but we are home presently. Do you think as you're an instructor at a college you should use some decorum in your choice of dress? I know there is nothing wrong with nudism, but some people may not understand and be offended. It could lead to unnecessary challenges for you." He stated with concern.
The three at the counter discounted his concerns. Lesley stated. "Dad, there will always be someone talking about you no matter what choices you make." With the two others at the counter in agreement with her statement.
Without further discussion Craig went about his usual morning duties. He cooked breakfast for everyone. Lesley and Frank cleaned up afterwards.
Emily dressed, gave her husband a kiss and stated. "Don't forget about this afternoon the meeting at four."
"We will be there." Stated Craig and Lesley.
Emily parked and entered the halls of the higher learning facility. On the way to her office, she was looked at with a smirk, from The Dean, the head of the Science department, and her assistant who cordially greeted the Professor. They tried and failed miserably to look like it was a congenial smile they gave her. She felt unsettled after they greeted her. Emily felt with good reason, they have cooked up another scheme to humiliate her, and she will probably have to buy into it in some way.
It was time for the professor's first class. She put out of her mind her concerns and entered her instructor identity to give her students the best instruction she can. The classes took her mind off the meeting at four pm. She finished her last class at noontime, had lunch, and spent the remainder of the day to compose the written test for FEH-101 as there are no standard tests for this course. She will make a template of it for future use.
Three o'clock rolled around before Emily knew it. Craig, Lesley, and Jerry arrived promptly on the hour.
"I have a foreboding feeling about this meeting." Emily stated concerned.
"I know Em, I was trying to tell you there will be some kind of negotiations today or at least a counter proposal." Craig stated.
"There was another P.I. snooping around the last few weeks I found out when I ran into him the other day." Jerry stated without much concern.
"Everything will work out fine!" Lesley naΓ―vely stated.
Quarter to four the group marched to the administration conference room. They were the first ones there, which could be viewed by the rest of the attendees as a disadvantage. It could be construed as too eager to settle.
The Dean, and Arnold came in at five after four. It was not until four thirty the administrator showed up with the lawyer and Mr. Smidt. They had a private meeting where the Administrator gave the Grantor the flash drive of Emily's class last week. The group had confident smiles when they finally entered the conference room and greeted everyone. Their confidence concerned Emily.
The President of the college moderated the meeting. "Good after noon. I appreciate everyone taking the time to attend this meeting. My name is Miles Lowe president of the college. Let's start by going around the room and give us your name with a short synopsis of your career."
Everyone complied with Mr. Lowe's request.
"We will start by commending Professor Steele for her work with the FEH-101 course it is a very challenging curriculum, but one that is needed. We are sorry for the way you were treated. We want to make amends. I also want to commend Mr. Graham for his role in creating the course, writing the syllabus, and obtaining the grant for the course. Unfortunately, he has received a full professorship at another college on the west coast and will be leaving at the end of the year. Professor Bates has accepted a Dean's position at another college in the midwest. I am therefore asking Professor Steele to consider the position of head of the science department vacated by Professor Bates. We will give you a week to consider it. I would like to present our philanthropist Mr. Smidt now." Mr. Lowe stated.
"Good afternoon! I would first like to apologize to Professor Steele for the unnecessary grief I caused her by the nude stipulation I imposed on her for the college to obtain the twenty-five-million-dollar grant. I have agreed to up the grant to seven-five million over the five years as Professor Steele asked and willing to up it to one-hundred-fifty million, for five years. With the stipulations that Professor Steele, be comfortable with. And I repeat the Professor has to be comfortable with the contract. I have given the contract to Mr. Bluster to discuss with the Professor after the meeting. The grantor stated when he addressed the group.
Meanwhile Lesley has her computer out to document the meeting minutes.
"We will now give the Dean the floor." Mr. Lowe announced.
"First of all, I like to say I am sorry for the way you were treated Professor Steele. We will not require you to do anything you are unwilling to do going forward. We know FEH-101 is a very difficult course to teach with the intimate probing required and we are grateful you stepped up to teach it. I will be staying on and you can come to me with any challenges you have in the future. Together we will come to a resolution which will benefit all." The Dean stated with a smile that should have been to calm the group, but it came off as a smirk.
"He must have his fingers crossed. I know he was lying through is teeth." Emily thought as she listened to his rhetoric.
Professor Bates and Mr. Graham profusely apologized to Professor Steele and bid goodbye to the facility members.
Emily thanked everyone for their support and the Meeting was adjourned without a definitive answer to her proposal.
The Lawyer asked: The Dean, Emily, Jerry, Craig, and Lesley to stay behind to have a meeting to address the proposal from the grantor.
Fred Bluster handed five copies of the proposal to Emily and stated. "Read this and get back to me with any questions or changes you would like to make." He then handed five copies of a dossier with the first picture inside the folder of Emily nude with her legs spread probably taken over the weekend at the nudist camp. "You would probably want to go with the proposal from the grantor." He stated with a smile of triumph on his face. "You have until next Monday to decide which course action you would like to take Professor Steele, remember it will be your decision and we will abide by it. He stated as he left the room with a triumphant smile on his face.
Emily had a panicked look on her face when she opened the dossier. Today she had real tears in her eyes. "What am I going to do!" She asked her associates.
"Let's look over the information and choose the best route forward." Jerry said with calm voice and a confident look on his face.
"Yes, we will get through this Em." Her husband stated emphatically as he held the tearful woman. He knew there was a battle in store for his wife, but the group was tenacious enough to win the war.
