College Official Resigns Over Speaker
CLINTON, N.Y. - The head of a gender studies program at Hamilton College has resigned after igniting a furor by inviting to the campus a professor who likened the Sept. 11 victims to Nazis. Nancy Rabinowitz said she was stepping down "under duress" as director of the Kirkland Project for the Study of Gender, Society and Culture. She will continue to teach comparative literature.
"I mean, a girl's got to make a living, and this isn't as hard as hooking..."
Rabinowitz resigned in a telephone call Thursday to the college's president.
"That does it! I quit!"
"Okay. Turn in your key..."
"Now, don't try to talk me out of it!"
On Feb. 3, she extended a speaking invitation to University of Colorado professor Ward ["Big Chief Spouting Bull"] Churchill, who in an essay written shortly after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks compared the World Trade Center victims to "little Eichmanns," a reference to the Nazi bureaucrat Adolf Eichmann.
"BUREAUCRAT"?!! Is that all he was, AP? Is that a fair or reasonable identification? Something nice and neutral to keep from offending, whom exactly? Holocaust deniers? Skinheads? Your future Arab employers? You wouldn't want to be judgmental, I know, but "convicted nazi war criminal who was hanged for complicity in genocide" sticks to the objective facts. Just the first 3 words will do nicely if you're pressed for space.
His appearance was ultimately canceled by the school because of death threats against college officials and Churchill.
Bullshit, the only threats that got their attention were the ones from alumni threatening to cut off, not their ears and noses as Islamofascists would, but their gravy train. With this explanation, they salvage a little something by creating a precedent for rejecting non-idiotarian speakers in the face of Islamo-fascist and peace-hypocrites. Hey, if you get a lemon, make lemonade.
Rabinowitz also drew fire in November when the program she headed offered a temporary teaching position to 1960s radical Susan Rosenberg. Rosenberg was indicted but never tried in a 1981 armored car robbery that left a guard and two police officers dead.
"Drew fire"? We should be so lucky.
She was sentenced for 58 years in prison for weapons possession, but President Clinton granted her clemency in 2001 after she served 16 years.
How much did that cost Soros?
This is interesting given Churchill's ties to the Weathermen terrorist gang (see below).
Rabinowitz has been the project's only director since its founding in 1996. "What the project needs now is someone more adept at the kind of political and media fight that the current climate requires.
A cockroach who won't panic when the lights come on. Lots of luck.
Therefore, it is in the interests of the mission of the project itself and for no other reason that I am yielding to requests that I resign," she said."
Might one suggest that it's about time to wrap up the Kirkland Project for the Study of Gender, Society and Culture? Is that really, really, truly the most pressing thing Hamilton College has going?
