Sen. Doug Erickson
These Western Washington University students are disgraceful. I hope someone does the same to them someday.
I worked with Doug from 1999 to 2004 on the Cascade Foothills Corridor project. I admire him and enjoyed working with him. He’s my state senator, and I consider him a friend. I’d like to see him run for governor some day.
A degreed scientist, co-founder of Greenpeace, takes the position that global warming is not proved, is a hoax.

If that fails we will rape, pillage and burn.
Sounds like spoiled liberal brats.
The Enviro-Nazis are insane.
those kids will be flipping burgers in a few months.
Why aren’t the students identified by name?
The budding fascists will never give-up.
Kick the students out, and refuse to forward official transcripts because of their terrorist activities.
They will then receive the fate they want to inflict. I think that is fair.
These useful idiots are nothing more than modern day terrorists, so much for tolerance.
Actually students that were admitted and continued to be enrolled thinking you can erase history by removing a degree that was validly earned reflects complete cluelessness on your part and damages the credibility of the university.
I don’t know much of anything about Doug Ericksen, but judging by the fact that the people who apparently have declared themselves to be his sworn enemies are tantamount to modern-day, brown-shirted book burners, I’d guess that he is a fine and upstanding example of everything that is good about this country.
WWU President Bruce Shepard should grow a set and expel these students...
Trying to revoke an alumni masters degree is not "freedom of expression" or a "diverse viewpoint" ...
It's academic terrorism...
So when will WWU President Bruce Shepard be launching an investigation into why his facility is failing so poorly at educating their students that they think their viewpoint on fantasy trumps actual reality? And which professors will he be firing?
Mr. Students seems to work anonymously.
Guess they’re not too confident in their cause.
We criticize Republicans all the time around here, and rightly so. They’re passive, afraid to stand up for conservative principles that work, and far too often seek to cut deals with the other side. That said, they don’t engage in the politics of personal vilification and destruction the way the left does. Well, unless it’s one of us or any other conservative. Nonetheless, most Republicans don’t engage that other side in that manner, but liberals see it differently. They aren’t just hellbent on defeating us politically, but they will stoop to any level to destroy our professional reputations and our personal lives. These idiots up in Washington trying to revoke this state senator’s masters degree from Western Washington University shouldn’t come as a shock.
Their own actions show that attempts to educate these students and teach them how do make informed judgements has been an utter failure and a waste of time and money.
So we know they are actually students...how?
The students acknowledged they werent trying to change Ericksens mind on the issue.
Were framing it in a more radical way, students said of the effort to revoke Ericksens degree. Were not just trying to have a conversation with him or hold him accountable. Were trying to revoke his degree and get people to pay attention.
So, no debate, no discussion, no exchange of thought or demonstration of academic process, just crude, naked force. These "students", if that's what they are, would be right at home in brown shirts.
These students are morons.
Ya know, if his degree can be revoked, the same can be done to special widdle snowflakes’ degree, too. Yes, kiddies, wrap your little pea brains around the concept of slippery slopes.
