An outspoken assistant professor of history is terminated, without even the pretense of a tenure review or any due process. This certainly look like retaliation for his constitutionally protected speech. There is an open letter to the administration protesting this here. Together with other mischief, one wonders what the heck is going on at this university? (As testimony to the climate of fear among academics, the professor who alerted me to this, who also teaches at a public university in Mississippi, asked not to be identified for fear of retaliation for calling attention to this.)
Comments are open for those with more information or links.
