4. I hope the academic lynching mob gets their due,
Edited on Sun Jun-17-07 01:05 PM by policypunk
If participation in a ideologically driven jihad against their students, that included individual harassment in class isn't grounds for refusing tenure / withdrawal of tenure I don't know what is.

While I have no doubt that many of the players are utter and complete abercrombie assholes, what happened here was unbelievable.

A friend I went to school with got railroaded by a townie prosecutor on some serious charges. They would throw the book at as many students as possible when election time came for everything from underaged drinking to sodomy to theft of electricity for using a plug in a public parking lot at a tailgate. The judge threw out the charges, but thanks to Google he still has a cloud over his head.
