The University of Colorado's report on the investigation of Ward Churchill's alleged scholarly misconduct has just been released.

Churchill was found guilty of deliberate false assertions, misrepresentation of sources, and plagiarism.

Among other things, Churchill was found guilty of passing off others' work as his own (plagiarism), but also of passing off his own work as others'.

This "permits the author to create the false appearance that his claims are supported by other scholars when, in fact, he is the only source for such claims"...

If Ward would take a look at that "imperialist, sexist, racist" document called the Constitution, he'd discover that it elucidates a concept of fairness that involves a jury of your peers, not a jury of your clones.

His argument, though, provides a nice clear illustration of the leftist belief that there is no such thing as objective truth.

Churchill = Faux Indian and Faux Professor without a single strand of basic morality.

Anyone who was forced to attend a course this A$$hole presided over should sue the University for a refund.

If I had a child who had been assaulted by this freaks phoney credentials in a required class, I would be suing him and the university for fraud.

Ward is looking for any excuse...

"Churchill's assertion that there are different research standards for ethnic studies scholars."

"discipline"
yea, Ward you're a "disciplined" FRAUD!
and a despicable "disciplined" POS

but don't expect him to be fired...
if they fired him for what was found out about him,
they'd have to fire practically the entire teaching staff!

The sad thing is that Churchill is probably right. Ethnic studies departments probably do have "different" standards of scholarship. Which is why they shouldn't be departments.

"Churchill and his righteous entourage insist that he's been targeted because of his "alternative historical perspective."

Alternative historical perspective = making things up.

What a lame excuse this is...

"Scholars who have cited Churchill are "innocent" because they did not know Churchill fabricated information..."

"...scholars who rebuked him for falsification, fabrication and plagiarism just don't understand his discipline."

Hmmm. Wonder if he would tolerate the same from one of this students?

His class would be pretty easy to pass. Just do a direct copy from any text on the subject, including the class text, and claim it as your own and you are guaranteed an A.

Term papers could be completed a just a couple of hours -- get a copy of a term paper from last semester and copy if verbatim. Heck, why even copy it -- just get a copy of the file. Then pass it around to everyone else in the class. Should make it easy for Churchill to grade the classes term papers since all will be duplicates and everyone gets an A.

Hey, this isn't all that bad. /sarc

" When one of Ward's students, a Mandan-Hidatsa Indian, wrote a piece raising doubts about his claimed biography, he dropped her grade from an A to a C-minus."

come on...
we all know what this is about and what has been going on in universities and colleges for DECADES!

American taxpayers have been paying for the Leftist, Socialist & Communist indoctrination of our children for years.

These clowns at Univ. Colorado dropped the ball when they interviewed, hired this POS, gave him tenure and a PROFESSORSHIP WITHOUT A PHD!

ya know you can't BS a BS'er and I won't let these clowns piss in my ear and try to tell me it's raining!

Churchill has been having a homosexual/lesbian affair with Patsy Scroeder, former congresspig from Colorado.

In this relationship, he pretended to be a woman and she pretended to be a man.

He quit the relationship when he discovered hers was bigger than his!
