BlogUniversity of Colorado Cans Controversial Profby Jonathan Schanzer http://www.jewishpolicycenter.org/blog/2007/07/university-of-colorado-cans.html
CNN reports that the professor who compared 9/11 victims to Nazis was canned by the University of Colorado. In a 2002 essay, Professor Ward Churchill argued that 9/11 was a justified reaction to U.S. Middle East policy , and that 9/11 terrorists had "the courage of their convictions." The essay called 9/11 victims "little Eichmanns" -- referring to Gestapo officer Adolf Eichmann, a chief Holocaust architect. Disappointing, however, was CU's announcement that Churchill's firing was unrelated to the essay, but rather "deliberate and repeated research misconduct," including plagiarism and falsification. For on-target commentary, read this, courtesy of Cinnamon Stillwell at Campus Watch, and this great Ann Coulter piece from 2005.Related Topics: Campus Issues TrackBack URL for this post: http://www.jewishpolicycenter.org/blog/trackback.php/29/30527/5 Comment on this weblog entry |
