The Story of Bunnatine Greenhouse

The Story of Bunnatine Greenhouse
Chapter 15 the final chapter of our text, tells us about contractual challenges, which often come from an unsuccessful private contractor or subcontractor. But there can be other sources of challenges to contracts. What happens when professionalism collides with politics? Your assignment for this week's discussion is to research the story of Bunnatine Greenhouse, former contracting director for the Army Corps of Engineers, and current speaker with the National Whistleblowers Center. http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2005/04/shnayerson200504 http://www.pbs.org/now/politics/greenhouse.html http://whistleblowers.nonprofitsoapbox.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=81&Itemid=108 http://www.whistleblowers.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=933&Itemid=141 http://www.lmu.edu/lmunews/Bunnatine_Greenhouse_Stresses_Ethics_and_Integrity_in_Public_Service.htm?DateTime=633264113400000000&PageMode=View Check out this ongoing story of what she has done, what has been done to her, and what she is doing now.
