For those who don't know who Ward Churchill is, the RIL post has more details on him, and if you want some information from his supporters side, try this. I'll be at work all day Monday, but hopefully one of my co-bloggers or someone with a more conservative bent can attend and report back on the event. There really are some important issues of academic freedom wound up in his case by now, and I expect this will be quite an interesting panel.

I'll update if I hear news that there will be any type of protest occurring. [For the record, although I consider calling the people who worked in the WTC Towers "little Eichmanns" overblown rhetoric, if you're coming from a perspective that those people who help to support and run the American "machine" are responsible for the actions that our country takes, it does make a certain amount of sense.]Email This Post!
