SO I SPENT THE AFTERNOON IN TENURE MEETINGS, and I’m happy to say that neither the substance nor the atmosphere matched the kind of thing you read in David Horowitz’s The Professors. To the contrary, numerous people said things like “I disagreed with this argument, but the article was good.” That’s how it ought to be, of course.

Also, as I’ve observed before, we send all scholarship to multiple outside reviewers, something that I guess was never done with regard to Ward Churchill . . . .
