WHY has Gov. Owens NOT called in the FBI to Investigate WHY
this University has Failed to check the credentials of those it hires. In 1980 Churchill filed a resume that should
have been checked. in 1994 real Indians protested to the University about Churchill and were suppressed. He has LIED about his supposed ancestry, and about his military service and training,and is a plagarist WHY has Nobody called the FBI to help the Regents do their job?

This guy has been getting by for years on one 'factoid' --that he is Big Chief Running Fraud.

Fire him, if he dares to sue all this stuff will come out in court. This is classic cowardice by Academia.

So...sees honest hard-working Americans as Nazis...claims to be an Indian and isn't...and it turns out he's a plagarist. The hits just keep on coming.

LaVelle's criticism says Churchill invents or distorts facts, a claim repeated by other scholars.

That is seriously okay for lefties. Remember from their standpoint, it was okay that CBS aired forged memos because the false documents showed what CBS claimed was the "truth".

"He's impeccable on his sources and known for his empirical and archival-based methodologies," Arturo Aldama, a professor with Churchill in the CU ethnic-studies department told the Post. "Whether you agree with it or not, it's always been praised for academic rigor. He has 400 footnotes per chapter."

I could put in 1,400 footnotes per chapter, but that wouldn't make me a rigorous scholar if I'm penning garbage.

That would definitely count as plagiarism in one of my classes. No question about it.

This is just one paragraph; I wonder how often and widely he does this sort of thing? If this is typical of what he does, then he's definitely toast.

Hilarious! Anybody who knows anything about academic writing knows that the number of footnotes means nothing. In fact, if anything, it's a sign of intellectual laziness and the herd mentality.

You can throw anything and everything into your footnotes. It doesn't mean you're actually citing something significant from the sources in your notes, and it certainly doesn't mean you're not plagiarizing. What it does mean is that you know how to play the academic game.
