Anyone ever heard of Paul Vitz?

RE: Anyone ever heard of Paul Vitz?
it sounds like he's more or less *allowed* to have opinions like that by the very nature of him attaining tenure. given his freedom (as stated below), removing him from that post is also going to be extremely unlikely for both the school or the courts. a shame it is.

Quote:Academic tenure is primarily intended to guarantee the right to academic freedom: it protects teachers and researchers when they dissent from prevailing opinion, openly disagree with authorities of any sort, or spend time on unfashionable topics.
