Academic Freedom

Below is a link for an article at Inside Higher Ed about Ward Churchill, the University of Colorado professor who made a lot of people angry when he said that the 9/11 victims were "little Eichmanns." He's recently been found to be "academically dishonest," and this article is a good starting point for a discussion on the nature of "Academic Freedom." I suggest that everybody read this article (it's not too long, don't let the small scroll bar fool you).
