Fired Professor Teaches Anyway : Ward Churchill Back At CU
TheDenverChannel ^ | October 3, 2007

Posted on 10/03/2007 10:02:12 PM PDT by george76

University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill was fired by the Board of Regents in July.

But that didn't stop Churchill from still teaching at CU this week.

According to the Boulder Daily Camera, a group of student supporters rented out a classroom at CU's Eaton Humanities Building and invited Churchill to teach.

The topic? "ReVisioning American History: Colonization, Genocide and Formation of the U.S. Settler State."

And it appears this isn't a one-time-only event.

“He was one of the most valuable professors we’ve had on this campus.”

That should tell you everything you need to know about CU.

So let me understand this, he's teaching a class that doesn't offer credits toward a degree in a rented hall for students at CU? In other words, someone's renting space to give "students" a chance to listen to a lecture that has no bearing on their credits?

No wonder there are 24 year olds still working on their degrees....

Aaron Smith, a 24-year-old senior political science and ethnic studies major... “He was one of the most valuable professors we’ve had on this campus.”

Shaking my head..I hope his parents didn't have to pay for his education. Or maybe they're proud of their stupid son. Who knows...Ward Churchill is a liar, faker & a fraud.

He also lied about his military career...In a 1987 profile on Churchill, the Denver Post stated that Churchill went to paratrooper school, then volunteered for Vietnam, where he served a 10-month tour as Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol (LRRP), one of a six-man team sent out to track down North Vietnamese.[6] The Denver Post reported in 2005 that Churchill's military records show that he was trained as a projectionist and light truck driver, and gave no indication that he went to paratrooper school or trained for LRRP.

“Ward Churchill is doing a good imitation of L. Ron Hubbard. But Hubbard was both smarter and more effective.”

And Hubbard wasn’t a plagiarist.

Ward Churchill is as much of a Ranger as he is an Indian.

Mainstream Indians want nothing to do with the white boy from Illinois. The fringe kooks around here, the ones who are trying to shut down Columbus Day, still embrace him.

Thankfully we have a lot of illegal aliens here in CO. Otherwise we'd have to depend on CU students to man our McDonalds and hunger would be a severe problem for us.

When I was up last night with my toothache I decided to google him & lookee what I found... I think he was a lying soldier. Which makes him a phony in my eyes. He is another big liar to add to the ever growing liar’s list.

Good, he is a disgrace to the Indians too. I remember one Indian coming out & saying he isn’t of our tribe...He does have some card he says that makes him a member of a tribe. I never bought into his stories. I think he has mental problems.

Turns out his “card” was meant to be some kind of honorary status with that tribe, and they’ve since made it clear they don’t regard him as one of them. The guy is phony as a three dollar bill.

“...Ward Churchill would do himself some good to express a profound apology to people he has offended and misled.

He should also come clean about his appropriated American Indian identity. “

Churchill: “Fragging an officer has a much more impactful effect”

Ward Churchill has made some more despicable comments. This time, he is advocating military personnel to “roll a grenade under their line officer.”

Churchill: “For those of you who do, as a matter of principle, oppose war in any form, the idea of supporting a conscientious objector who’s already been inducted in his combat service in Iraq might have a certain appeal.

But let me ask you this: Would you render the same level of support to someone who hadn’t conscientiously objected, but rather instead rolled a grenade under their line officer in order to neutralize the combat capacity of their unit?”

“...Conscientious objection removes a given piece of cannon fodder from the fray. Fragging an officer has a much more impactful effect.”

- Ward Churchill, Portland, Oregon- 6/23/05
