Revision as of 14:15, 10 May 2021
- J. Mark Ramseyer (Harvard Law) and Amy Chua (Yale Law)
Contents
Boudreau (Central Michigan, 2021)
- A FOIA request got the settlement agreement. See Volokh Conspiracy.
Diane Klein (LaVerne, Chapman)
- Chapman Law teaching schedule.
Gordon Klein
- My June 29 blog write-up with links about Klein's situation. It has a link to the very good Larry O'Connor show interview audio.
- Summer 2020: Long and detailed FIRE letter to UCLA.
- Summer 2020: "Statement of the Committee on Academic Freedom," the U of California system committee chaired by Professor Eugene Volokh. Susannah Lohman is a member too.
- Summer 2020: "Fire Dean Bernardo" petition with 1,200 signatures and 34 pages of comments.
- October 2020: "UCLA reinstated Gordon Klein. Who will reinstate his reputation?" Alex Morey, FIRE.org. This is a very good interview with Gordon Klein in which he carefully praises FIRE and the Committee on Academic Freedom and, it looks like to me, paves the way for a possible lawsuit on breach of confidentiality by Dean Bernardo. Very good photo of Klein at the top, too.
- The UCLA AAUP leadership, which includes Susannah Lohman; and the AAUP State of California leadership.
John MacAdams (Marquette, 2018)
"John McAdams, political science professor who took Marquette to the state Supreme Court, dies," Devi Shastri, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, April 15, 2021.
Joseph Petry
- Feb. 28, 2020 University Report online.
- June 11, 2020 News Release by Thies-Webber.
- January 27, 2021 News Release by Thies-Webber after winning on the motion to dismiss, with the Complaint and Motion to Dismiss and Objection to the Motion to Dismiss and Decision. This is the key document.
- Jan 28, 2021 "Ex-professor's breach-of-contract suit against UI can proceed, judge decides," Ben Zigterman [email protected],.
- FEBRUARY 9, 2021, "Judge approves professor’s lawsuit against university for baseless grades-for-sex investigation," HENRY KOKKELER - WASHINGTON STATE UNIVERSITY. This is a very informative article.
Level 2 and 3 Witch Hunts
2021 and 2019 ( Paul Graham
We can classify witch hunts by how long such paths can be. E.g. in a level 3 witch hunt, you can be targeted for defending someone who defended someone who was targeted. I saw that happen in 2020. I don't think I've seen 4 hops yet though.
It happened to me. A mob came after me when I tweeted this because they thought I was defending Stallman for defending Minsky. (Actually I wasn't. Stallman just happened to be one of two people getting cancelled then.)
Sep 17, 2019
If we extended human lifespans sufficiently, everyone would be cancelled. The drift in moral fashion would ensure that even those most carefully orthodox in their opinions would have said something that later became heretical.
