First of all, Mr. Daly is not a professor, he is an adjunct instructor, basically a temporary hire. He may be very good or very bad, but he is not a professor. He probably does not have tenure and can be subjected to disciplinary hearings due to actions that reflect poorly on the college.
His immaturity is striking even at the academic level. And his ignorance of communist history and the number of people who have died over the last 80 years is hard to explain unless that ignorance is willful.
The President's response is even more notable. It appears to me that he badly needs a Public Relations Crisis Management course. He has misidentified the cause of his pain, publicly blaming it on a student who has chosen to exercise her right to free speech on a national level to a willing audience. His statement that the student was hurting the shool by appearing on radio and cable shows a profound immaturity, a lack of critical thinking in a fast moving environment.
If he would like to control the perception of his institution he should simply state that any employee taking actions that reflect poorly on his college will be fired immediately by the President and will not be subject to a review by any academic boards.
But I think this President is a "fourth tier guy" and nothing will change, unless the Board of Directors steps in and arranges an unpaid sabbatical. If I were on that board, I would be making informal phone calls to determine the sense of the board members as he does not seem to have the wherewithall to execute the duties of this position, one of which is to take no actions which reflect poorly on the institution.
You wanna get this scum Daly fired! The best way is to go to your company's office that pays for tuition out of its training budget and tell them of this outrage. Your company can then tell the President that they will in no way pay tuition or allow their employees to get degrees from their rathole university. Money talks and Daly's ass is in the street.
