I believe if the University of Colorado wants to redeem its tattered reputation, it will fire Churchill and tell him, "lets go to court". This would send a message to the parents who are paying the salaries of the people who work at the college that Mr. Churchill has gone too far. Mr. Churchill will not go to court. He will bluff and bluster, but he will soon realize that the few thing which he has kept hidden from the public although a strong irritant to his bruised ego, he knows the many other indiscretions and possible felonies which he has committed will come to the public domain. I do not believe he will want to withstand the withering examination.

My daughter who will enter college in about 18 months has gotten a flier form the University of Colorado, as well as many other colleges. She and I spoke and I told her that I would not subsidize the University of Colorado or a college administration which protectes the likes of Mr. Churchill. The University of Colorado is now well on the way to being marginalized precisely because they cry "tenure" and are willing to take our children and subject them the the type of buffoonery which Mr.Churchill represents. Mr. Churchill does not represent 1st Admendment causes. He represents Mr. Churchills causes,selling books, selling plagerized painting, selling the historical perversion of native Americans, and hubris. In being allowed to do this with the approval of the University of Colorado, it does put the University on trial. If these bright people who run the university fail to see what is obvious to us all, it will be the University of Colorado, not Mr. Churchill who will loose the most.

Agree. If they don't simply terminate him, effective immediately, no severance, no benefits, etc. one would have to ask - What impropriety, incompetence or other activity by a 'Professor' would warrant dismissal? If dismissal isn't in the cards in this case when would it ever be?

Good for you! Although my 'child' completed college a few years ago, I must say that the thought has occurred to me that, were I a parent in your situation today, I would love to see a website that ranks the colleges and universities across our nation, based on what level of nonsense the students are being taught and by what number of lunatics. Surely parents should know what they are exposing their children to, and what they are paying for, before they naively send their offspring into such a snakepit. Good luck to you and your daughter.

I agree 100 percent; if they make any other kind of deal, they are completely marginalized!

There was an article last week that since this started, their applications are down 15 to 20 percent, which roughs out to 15,000,000 a year!

And I would never let a child of mine go there just based on the fact that they once hired Mary Frances Berry as a chancellor.
