HoodaThunk?

The Chancellor of the University of Colorado will recommend firing plagiarist, forger, and all-around slimewad Ward Churchill due to Churchill’s “pattern of research misconduct committed over a period of time.” Another member of academia shows both backbone and common sense!

The top official at the University of Colorado’s flagship campus on Monday recommended that the school fire the firebrand professor who compared some of the World Trade Center victims to a Nazi and later was accused of academic misconduct.

Ward Churchill has displayed “a pattern of research misconduct committed over a period of time,” Interim Chancellor Philip DiStefano said.

Churchill, who did not return telephone messages, has 10 days to appeal the recommendation to a faculty committee. A tenured professor of ethnic studies, he has denied allegations of plagiarism and other misconduct and has called the school’s investigation a joke.

Readers of this blog will have no issue determining where I stand on “Professor” Churchill’s status. I’ve written a number of posts about this excuse for a member of our academia and the thought of him getting his lying butt booted to the curb in full view of a public he’s snookered for years is one of the more warm and fuzzy thoughts I’ve had in months. I only hope the little fraud does decide to sue in open court. Having him scramble to try to prove all the lies and excuse all the thieving he’s done would be an interesting side show and a vital glimpse for most Americans into the state of our university systems.
