He should be dismissed because he is a fraud, and his whole career bogus, and not because of what he said.

He will be (dismissed) ... probably before the end of this month.

Well, I hope they shout it from the rooftops that he's a complete phony whose entire career was built on lies.....

Then again, Mark Goldblatt's take on it is different. Let him stay there to show how corrupt academia is.....

The fact that he has tenure must, I'm afraid, be taken into account. Firing him, or forcing him to resign, might be morally satisfying but would be a tactical error. It would confer martyr status on him, and it would be interpreted by his students, and by Churchill himself, as punishment for speaking the truth to power. Besides, the fault here does not lie with Churchill; he's a symptom, not a disease. The fault lies, generally, with the sick academic culture in which he has thrived, and, specifically, with the administrative weasels at the University of Colorado who have repeatedly rewarded his dubious critical achievements. What should be done with Churchill, therefore, is...nothing. His notoriety should stand as an ongoing monument to the decay of intellectual standards in higher education, and his professorship as an ongoing monument to the intellectual cowardice of the school which hired and tenured him.

Interesting thoughts............
