Ward Churchill, a controversial activist for academic freedom, at a speech at Trinity University on Tuesday accused the university's president, Dennis Ahlburg, of a smear campaign against him some years ago in Colorado.
He also invoked the Hitler salute of “Sieg Heil” to Ahlburg's wife, Penelope Harley, as she stormed out of the auditorium after defending her husband in front of the audience of students and faculty.
“This personal vindictiveness in an institution that has welcomed you ... I find very, very hard to listen to. And quite frankly, pretty darn insulting,” said Harley, before leaving for her son's soccer match.
Ahlburg was in New York, but was reached by phone later.
“He comes in and insults me in my absence... and screams ‘Sieg Heil' at my wife?” Ahlburg said. “This is a champion for free speech that America does not need. The only speech he wants to hear is his own voice.”
David Spener, a professor of sociology and anthropology, invited Churchill to speak as part of a program to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Known for his inflammatory rhetoric, Churchill wrote that the attacks were justified by U.S. sanctions in the Middle East, and called the World Trade Center workers “little Eichmanns” who “formed a technocratic corps at the very heart of America's global financial empire.”

If you don’t make donations they don’t go to anything.
I’d recommend San Antonio College (SAC). Much cheaper and they do have some conservatives.
Since I cant post to the newspaper comments from my phone, you might suggest something to that effect there for me :D
I am not a member. I ain’t signing up.
I did send it to the reporter though.

Next time they call, say “No, I’m not donating to a college that pays speaking fees to FRAUDS like Ward Churchill.”
Ward Churchill a “controversial activist for academic freedom”? Not sure if I should laugh or be sick...
Ward Churchill is a phony, a liar, a thief, a charlatan, a serial agitator, a plaigarist, and a self-styled member of the perpetually agrieved...
He has absolutely no place in any institution of higher learning...
After some considerable effort and expense, the people of Colorado are finally rid of him...I see he’s landed somewhere else to carry on his vile hatred of all things American...
As for anyone who pays out good money to hear him spew his bile, serves ‘em right!
This guy is a demented fraud.
This guy is inciting.
So many communists, so few suitable lampposts...
Let’s add re Churchill, marxist psychopath, a non-Indian, and hatemonger.
Making a list, checking it twice, and then calling the insane asylum to come pick up their loose cannon.
no, it is not Christian. It was originally.

Thanks for the link. A techie “fixed” my computer early last year, and lost an entire directory and also “forgot” to back up my Favorites folder, which I’m still rebuilding. This was one of the missing.

Melissa Ludwig contributor and staffer for the My San Antonio.com website could have led off her attribution to Ward Churchill instead of “contraversial activist” but:
Ward Churchill Native American poseur and well rounded Marxist kicked off os several college campuses but still tenured by University of Colorado ....
The guy is a con man who belongs on a used car lot or in a pawn shop......
“He comes in and insults me in my absence... and screams ‘Sieg Heil’ at my wife?” Ahlburg said. “This is a champion for free speech that America does not need. The only speech he wants to hear is his own voice.”
Muttering in a low voice as he leaves the microphone, “will not someone rid me of this academic fraud”.
Ahlburg is who I blame. If he had any balls he’d have told the commie professor “hell no, he ain’t coming”. We can’t afford to send our son to trinity, but he qualified a generous grant from a group of very generous alumni. I am sure these alumni would object to how their money is being spent.
