My friend K. C. Johnson, a professor at Brooklyn College, has posted an of our analysis of the University of Colorado’s report on Ward Churchill:
The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education has issued an analysis of the University of Colorado’s Report on Conclusion of Preliminary Review in the Matter of Professor Ward Churchill. As always, FIREis right on target.
Thanks for the props, K. C.! He goes on to analyze the remaining issues in the Churchill case and to discuss legislation in Florida that he finds troubling. It’s a blog post well worth the read.
