Victory for A Scam Artist

Ex-professor Ward Churchill, the scam artist who pretended to be of Indian ancestry to get “special privileges” at his college left the courtroom triumphantly, “pumping his fist” communist-style after winning his suit to prove the college fired him for his “little Eichmanns” crack in an article about the victims of 9/11. Of course, they COULD have fired him for that under university rules. So what did he win? One dollar plus his attorney’s fees. The university MAY ultimately be forced to rehire him after all the appeals are done. But they COULD hire him back without classes for him to pervert. His “tenure” does not force them to provide him with a classroom OR students to teach how to kill to make a point. They can assign him to anything they wish. I’d make him a janitor. Frankly, I think his “little Eichmanns” comment merely ALERTED the university to what kind of a man he was. It was a bonus to find out he falsified a lot of his research, as well as lying about an “Indian heritage.” Of course, he wore an “Indian” jacket into court to emphasize his pretend “Indian heritage.” If he gets a classroom, they ought to label his course for what it is: “How to Scam the World.” Obama would be his first student.
