UPDATE: As of April 2024, MICA has yet to formally respond to the petition, and Bill (William) Gaskins continues to hold the sole position of program director for the Photography + Media & Society program. Notably, this case was escalated to Vice Provost Stacey Salazar, yet she has chosen not to respond or take any action to remove Gaskins from his position. This suggests a deliberate choice from MICA administration to ignore this concerning issue and reflects a greater issue of the MICA management's handling of faculty concerns and accountability.
