Dr. John McAdams, a professor of political science at Marquette University whose blog posts have brought to light many of the Jesuit University’s actions undermining its Catholic identity, has reportedly been suspended, banned from campus and is now under formal investigation by the administration. The Cardinal Newman Society spoke to the University in order to determine the grounds for the disciplinary action.
McAdams released the news on his blog, Marquette Warrior, which included an email sent to him from the dean of Marquette, Richard Holz. The email stated that McAdams was to remain off campus while his conduct was reviewed by the University. Enclosed in the email was Marquette’s harassment policy.
The Cardinal Newman Society previously covered McAdams’ report concerning one of the University’s philosophy instructors, Cheryl Abbate, a graduate student who reportedly told one of her students that discussion of same-sex marriage “would be offensive” to homosexual students. She reportedly said the student did not have “a right in this class to make homophobic comments” and invited him to drop the class. The story garnered national attention.
McAdams posited that since his blog has not covered anything “particularly controversial lately besides [the post] about the Philosophy instructor (one Cheryl Abbate), we have to assume that’s what it is about.” McAdams also noted that the dean’s inclusion of the harassment policy in his suspension email might be an indication that “merely blogging about questionable conduct by a Philosophy instructor constitutes ‘harassment’” in the University’s mind.

Ah yes, my alma mater. I couldn’t stand the place. Truly, it was a daily ordeal to be a girl/woman there amongst the jesuits who hated women. Especially smart women.
wow. the university isn’t even trying to hide what it is doing.
Of course, the current pope might turn a blind eye, seeing
as how he apparently is a major left-winger. IMO
The local Bishop needs to step in and tell them to get their heads straight or withdraw their Catholic charter.
one of the greatest tragedies, stabs-in-the-back.... has been the shift at some church schools away from God... right past secular neutrality....to Satan’s brigades
this hurts many of us ... immensely...

The homonazis are as intolerant as the kkk.
They suspended the wrong employee. Once again calling good evil and evil good.
McAdams for the record, is somewhat famous for his defense of the Warren Commission findings on the JFK assassination, the SBT, Single Bullet Theory and so on.
Same guy. I think it’s good and admirable he stood up.
JFK assassination newsgroup which McAdams seems to moderate or something, see the name JOHN, that’s him I think. Looks like he is posting away: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/alt.assassination.jfk
Is a discussion of the etiology of condyloma acuminata critical analysis or homophobic?
I've been through this routine before, before I left Catholicism in disgust. The bishops go through some bureaucratic excuse process for why the school isn't in their chain of authority.
The'll tell you to take it up with the Jesuit order, who promptly ignores you.
I have to say the CNS did a nice job in exposing this radical homosexual. I’m sure someone in the University leadership had to know the professor’s views/practices but did not want to stir the pot.
Hope they get to my alma mater soon. There was a lesbian (haircut and wardrobe dead give away she did not have to tells us) back in the late 80s teaching a theology course there.
Wow I’m a man and noticed that too at my Jesuit university. One priest especially was rude to women who questioned him.
Unfortunately this has been going on for years and these Jesuit universities are bold in supporting the communist homosexual agenda.
There was a fully functioning LGBT club at my Jesuit college back in the late 80s. Disturbing enough to have one, but the school funded their activities and their meetings were well attended. Yet the Pro Life club which was led by a friend of mime and fellow ROTC cadet got scant support financially (some of the older conservative priests helped out of pocket). I was amazed we were a smaller group than the gay club.
Of course the LGBT club made it their number one mission to try to get ROTC thrown off campus.
Don’t send your kids to Jesuit schools.
Yuck. Had to look that up.

Exactly. I’ve been told by Catholics here that Catholic universities, especially Jesuit ones should not be confused with the Catholic church. What kind of nonsense is that. Parents spend hard earned money to send their young adult children to these expensive colleges thinking it is good for them.
I have a very devout Catholic Air force buddy who wanted to send his son to a Jesuit college. I shared my experiences at one and helped him find a more morally conservative college in Ohio. Some here hail from that college.
Of course a an Evangelical now and he a Catholic, I was not going to convince him of Liberty University, TCU or Baylor:)
MSM discussions of homosexual activity fail to add condyloma acuminate to the [CONS] list of buggery. It’s not all unicorns and lavender.
