| Ward Churchill: The Big "P" |
| 2005-03-11 |
| University of Colorado officials investigating embattled professor Ward Churchill received documents this week purporting to show that he plagiarized another professor's work.Officials at Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia sent CU an internal 1997 report detailing allegations about an article Churchill wrote. "The article . . . is, in the opinion of our legal counsel, plagiarism," Dalhousie spokesman Charles Crosby said in summarizing the report's findings. Churchill did not return calls to his home or office Thursday seeking comment... Accompanied, as usual, by Churchill's physically threatening his accuser--his typical M.O. |

| #18 AC: Churchill is a bully and as such is extremely unlilkely to piss off anyone with the capability of doing him in, let alone b*tch slapping him. And as such he will mostlikely get into trouble for when he bravely attacks elderly men and women, and then hopefully he will serve some time. |

| #17 fire his ass for plagiarism and make it a public firing. He'll still have the Berkley/Columbia honorariums for speechs to the professionally outraged, but other than that - stick a fork in his ass, he's done |

| #12 Plagiarism is definitely grounds for termination, tenure or not. A student who did this would be expelled instantly. Speaking of tenure, one of my favorite cartoons in the old Omni magazine pictured a maniacal type in a white lab coat menacing another guy in a lab-coat, with the latter chained hand and foot to the wall of an apparent laboratory. The maniac is gleefully rubbing his hands and saying, "Mad? Me? Mad? Why, yes I'm mad, but I have tenure!" I wish I could find a copy of it for my office door. |

| #5 Now, now....as you all know, in Ward's tribe (the Where-the-hell-are-we), copying the work of another is considered the highest compliment. You are all just culturally insensitive little Eichmanns! /sarcasm off |

| #4 From what I've been hearing, if they don't find an actionable offense, they'll have to pay this asstard big bucks to get rid of him. Of course, not only should he go out the door without a penny, he should get a size 12 up the ass to help him on his way. I hope this one sticks - and I hope Mrs D is right that this offense breaks the goddamned tenure bullshit. I'd abolish tenure. I know the reasons for it, and there are obvious reasons against it. Hey, I believe that employees should have to prove competency to keep their jobs - and management should have perf stats that determine if they stay - or go -- all of this done annually or bi-annually. Not very fond of dead wood. |

| #2 Why, I think that's a terminable offence even if one has tenure. Bye Bye Ward. Say hi to the Beav! |
