How many scholars refused to sign the letter? Without that information, we can’t judge the significance of 300 signatures.
Wonder how they define the word “scholar” ?
Those 300 “scholars” represent how many universities? Big SJW places like Berkeley or Stanford have that many perfessers in just about every “school” on campus.
Are we reacting to the loons at one or two places of alleged “higher learning” or is this opinion OPENLY shared by a crap-ton of schools?
Did you go through the list of the signatories available at the link?
A who’s who of people I’ve never heard of teaching courses at places I’d never entrust with my kid.
