I was wondering the same thing. My theory is that somebody at Harvard got wind of what he did and realized that it would embarass the school (as if Al Franken at the staff wasn't enough of an embarrassment to begin with!)

From what I have seen of Franken, conscience does not seem to enter into his attitude towards conservatives.
