I don't know. A local university here has a vice provost that has that position due to sexual harassment complaints. He had tenure and that trumped firing.

We'll see. I'd like to see these guys fired, but I have my doubts.

I do know. If the university wants you gone, you are gone, irrespective of tenure. All university by-laws have a section that says tenure is no longer in effect when the board of trustees, the president of the university, the chancellor, the dean of the school, or the faculty council makes such a decision. They have to do this for situations where a tenured professor commits a crime or violates the ethical code of conduct which is established within his or her contract. Such code violations include sexual harassment, grades for cash, running a business on university time or property, willfully publishing false information, refusal to maintain academic standards, etc.

A couple of checks at that youtube shows the counter at 277,369 and it hasn’t moved.

It shows 277,882 as of 14:20ET; with 10 Video Responses and 1133 Text Comments. Seems the count is advancing - maybe it hits a 'divide-by-ten' counter on the way in? </sarc>

Cheers!

“they’re smart enough to know they were duped”

At this point I think all those jackasses were willing partners.

Nobody is going to tell me that this is only one professor at one university in this scheme. Waterboard him.

Penn State is using the Janet Reno approach. It is investigating and will not, it said, have anything more to say because it is investigating.

Not quite. His friend wrote a book about him, and he put his name on it.

The State Pen and Penn State are just down the road from each other.

If tenure presents a barrier to terminating junk scientists, perhaps the place to begin is with criminal indictments for fraud. Prisoners in the State Penitentiary will still be nearby the scene of their fraud and available for depositions, etc.

Meanwhile, parents and students might consider demanding full refunds for tuition, lab fees, textbooks, etc. related to junk science/global warming studies. They should file early as the damage done by this hoax is enormous.

Nobel’s record is getting worser and worser. Gore, the AGW team, Carter and Obama. Maybe the award should be retired (following a thorough investigation).

data goes back to the 80s and 90s.
