Where's Hubie?
A federal judge Monday ordered that the cost-cutting dismissals of hundreds of tenured Chicago Public School teachers be rescinded and new rules be established for their possible rehiring.
Chicago Teachers Union officials hailed the decision as a "stunning victory" for tenured teachers; CPS officials minimized it.
At issue was the dismissal of 749 tenured teachers who were "honorably discharged’’ without regard to seniority or tenure during a series of CPS economic layoffs this summer.
Once again, the Slum-Times carrying water for the Shortshanks administration. So how many city departments has he ruined now? And he's rumored to be coming back here?

Holy God. And Huberman nowhere in sight, humming "Duck And Cover," curled up in some corner waiting for the bang. That probably means triple back pay retroactive to their dismissal date.
This "education" is going to be the death of us.
And he's been oddly out of the picture with that school where the parents are sitting in until they get answers or get a library.
I mean, isn't it his RESPONSIBILITY to deal with those parents who care so deeply that they'll hunker down for the duration at that supposedly 'unsafe' building?
“teachers who were "honorably discharged’’ without regard to seniority or tenure”
Now this might suggest to the uninformed reader that there was no criteria at all used to determine which teachers should get the axe. Of course there was, but the Sun Times doesn’t want to print it. Obviously these teachers had no political sponsors, no clout. The cloutless are always the first thrown overboard when a ship starts to sink around here.
How many millions will this flagrant refusal to adhere to the rules cost the citizens?
They never keep this walking disaster anywhere long enough for him to get the blame for what he's done.
Just heard on Channel 9 that he is expected to step down from CPS before the end of the year. Oh brother, I see this one coming from a mile away!
well as you may now know hubberman quit.bet he now will assist his main man rahm run for mayor
.........not to mention the substitute teachers that were 'let go' during this mess. Thousands of lives upended because of this guy.
Just because you went to an Ivy League school, doesn't mean you're smart Hubberman.
This guy is bad news and Daley should take him with when he goes. The Hubberman experiment was a abject FAILURE.
just announced that hubie will be leaving cps--- does that mean that he will be taking the reins from j-fled---- great, another police expert who thinks they are going to reinvent the wheel.....
Looks like that sack of unqualified crap is out. I mean, do you think the next mayor will have unqualified staff running important positions? probably who am I kidding
Who is this guys clout?
WTF He's just as bad as J-Fled
And now the other shoe drops. He announced this morning that he'll resign before Daley leaves office.
And what job will also be open at that time? Why, the Superintendent of Chicago Police job! What a coincidence, boys and girls!
T minus nine days and counting...
looks like hubie is resigning from cps another scandal there maybe?
"Once again, the Slum-Times carrying water for the Shortshanks administration."
**************************
Since my Parrot died, I have no cage to line with news paper. I do not buy the Scum Times or read used copies of same. Don't waste money on the Tribfoone either. Long after daley is gone the Crook County/Shitcago propaganda machine will still be in place.
SCC is the only legit current affairs rag still afloat.
Five Stars for SCC !!!!!!!!
The TRUTH will eventually be told !!!!!!!!!!
FREE COZZI

Absolutely right. Joravsky profiled a couple of them in the Reader. Nationally certified teachers (I have teachers in the family, they tell me that certification is not something that is given out lightly). Most of them apparently cut loose because their clouted principal didn't like them and they had no clout of their own to protect them.
Once again the courts step in to further restrict what local officials can do.
Shortshanks has complained about this: there are fewer and fewer things the local authorities can actually control. The courts freeze the rest, and say "you'll figure out how to work around this."
If our institutions - like the CPS - need reform so badly, we're not going to get anywhere by declaring large parts of their operations off limits.
Remember, Huberman is on leave from CPD and holds a civil service rank of Lietenant that was given to him by the City Council prior to leaving for the Mayors chied of staff position. I was there when the council voted on it. He may be back at 35th Street soon.
My guess is that he'll go to D.C. Barrack will give him something.
Hubie be gone- Rahm said he was going to be one of the first to go. Rahm Uncle is a retired Sgt who was a stand up Sgt.
I read your article very early this morning, clicked on the Sun Times and saw the article announcing his leaving---are you a mindreader, SCC?
Baby Hubie will work where ever his god father tells him to!
It's official, Hubie will resign before Mayor Daley retires. So Where's Waldo going now?
bad as SUPT with next mayor!! a done deal then he takes over city hall in 4 yrs
I read your article very early this morning, clicked on the Sun Times and saw the article announcing his leaving---are you a mindreader, SCC?
If we were, we'd be betting the ponies and spending weekends in Vegas. As it is, we just pay attention and listen well at the tavern.
He is coming back to CPD of course! And thats LT Hubie! How long was his leave of absence? Is that leave approved for all?
Luberman will be the next appointed alderman as a parting gift from Shanks. Its apparent he has no desire to have anything to do with the police. Daley has offered the Board position to someone else so they won't take votes from Rahmbama, they needs to find Lubes another post to fck up before then.
We know SCC has proven to be anything but insignificant to the rank and file of the CPD. I think it would be a beautiful thing if for 48hrs, SCC and bloggers posted nothing but the words "Forensic Audit for Chicago" and showed Shortshanks and Co. that SCC is also significant to the citizens of this potentially wonderful city.
Huberman bolting is such a biggie that it is on WSJ...WOW...I would never have thought it was such a big deal!

Maybe he's going to be Secretary of Defense..Yikes...hearing the bizarre, robot-like, monotone voice on the National News!
Hubie be gone- Rahm said he was going to be one of the first to go. Rahm Uncle is a retired Sgt who was a stand up Sgt- I Hope he does not pick Hubie. There are plenty of fine POs (with rank in the military)that have combat experience in the GWOT that could do us proud.
Back when they were remodeling the police academy, contractors had roughed in plumbing and electric and framed the academy's new work-out area. He came in and told them it wasn't what he wanted and they tore it all out and did it over. He was chief of staff then, how did he find money to put in a mold infested money-pit building, but can't get some kids a library.
WBBM 780 has been reporting that Hubie categorically denies he's leaving. Will he be pushed or is he going to jump anyway? Maybe the CBU can whip out the old Ouija board and let us know...
...See how they run!
Well now! Let's take a look at the tally board...
Shortshanks? Not running again/told he better NOT run again.
Much crying from the Shakman exempt people, i.e. "the $100k salary and steal a pension" political appointees. They may have to get off the municipal tit for the first time in a generation.
Now if only something can be done about the same two dozen or so last names of Bridgeport/Canaryville/Mt. Greenwood families who have become legacies/multi-millionaires many times over on the tax payer dime over the last 60 years? if municipal governance adhered to the same integrity and ethics they beat the unclouted over the head with, this Frankenstein's Monster would NOT have come into existence.
Rules in Chicago are for governing the unclouted. The powers that be can't abide being subjected to the nasty surprise of somebody no one sent having a place at their table.
Luberman?
Told by shortshanks to run and save himself. Their campaign to destroy CTU was undone by *gasp* a judge they thought they had in the bag to do their bidding.
It seems some ugly shit is about to be revealed regarding BOE.
J-fled?
A condemned man on his way to the gallows but taking baby steps to delay the inevitable...
Hence all the "don't believe your lyin' eyes, crime is actually down" bullshit being flung at the bathroom wall uhhh, Chicago media to be spewed continuously until the feeble-minded majority believes it with every fiber of their being.
Why are members of the deeply entrenched Chicago kleptocracy fleeing like vermin from a burning Gladys Ave. two-flat... All of a sudden?
Shit is about to be revealed like a big ass coming out of some tight pants!
Taa- muthafuckin' -Daaaaah bitches!
The Trotskyite, liberal yellow pinky, hope to take your remaining change crew led by "The Hollow Dude" KNOW they're going to get served HARD by the hunted and captive tax-payers of this country next month.
It would sicken them to also lose "The Hollow Dude's" home town and power base which also happens to be the seat of power for Daley Inc.
Rahmbo was dispatched to run for mayor in order to oversee the consolidation of Daley Inc. assets.
They do NOT want to lose Chicago.
I heard jfed wants to keep his job as sup so bad that he is thinking about running for mayor
Luberman?
Told by shortshanks to run and save himself. Their campaign to destroy CTU was undone by *gasp* a judge they thought they had in the bag to do their bidding.
Right on.

Kind of reads like the same situation with several former exempts in the CPD who were simply men that were respected but failed to parlay clout that would protect them from the knife of WEISel/Masters (3M).
'This guy is bad news and Daley should take him with when he goes. The Hubberman experiment was a abject FAILURE.'
Boy, this guy Lubie has more and more in common with the J-Fled-3M
"experiment" than we could have imagined!
Chicago sets precedence!The rats are jumping off the ship.
