Ward Churchill Update

From Betsy's Page:

The Denver Post reports that the University of Colorado is close to a buyout deal for Ward Churchill. I don't understand why they need to pay this cretin any money. Today there emerges even more evidence that the guy has committed academic fraud by plagiarizing an article and then threatening the woman he plagiarized if she complained. This is not the first allegation of academic fraud against Churchill. If he has falsified data and plagiarized an article then that should be enough to fire him. You don't even need to worry about his inflammatory remarks about 9/11 or his selling copies of copyrighted paintings. No university has to keep paying a professor who has committed academic fraud."
