If they don't push back hard on this scandalous assault on basic academic freedom, yes. (And on the 'hockey stick' fake scandal that is being used as cover, do see this.)
UPDATE: A strong statement of protest from the University of Virginia faculty senate. (Thanks to Mitch Green for the pointer.) Where is the UVA law faculty on this one, I wonder? The incoming University President is married to a distinguished constitutional law scholar at UVA, Douglas Laycock (my former colleague at Texas for many years). And one of the leading legal authorities on academic freedom is Robert O'Neil, an emeritus professor of law at UVA.
ANOTHER: There is a petition protesting the harassment by the Attorney General, that is open to academics in Virginia to sign. (Thanks to Brie Gertler for the pointer.)
