The entire point of Dutschke's (and later Gramsci's) "Long March Through The Institutions" is that once subverted, institutions such as academia will stay subverted. It makes absolutely no practical difference that Churchill is a liar, a cheat, and a thief - he's got his cushy 97 large and he's going to keep it and pass it on when he can. Giving up the departmental chair was, in that respect, a bit of a blow but he's going to be leeching off the taxpayers he curses until he reaches retirement, and then he will resort to leeching off the taxpayers. It's a sweet con if you can manage it.
Hmmmm, Lane is threatening to take it to the Supreme Court if they fire Churchill because tenure is a property right?
well methinks all those opposed to tenure, in principal or who oppose positions for life without proving merit, or all those who think tenure had limits, which ought to be defined if not already, should fund the opposition to Mr. Lane's threat, let's take the issue of tenure to the Supreme Court after GW's changed the composition of that institution
we got some conservative George Soros type wallets out there?
