Yes, but did they have slavery links?

"Everyone Was Doing It"

Same excuse Slick Willie and Hillary always use.

Do you know who it was that studied/founded 'eugenics', which was largely popularized by the Nazis?

[pleikumud]

William Randolph Hearst was sympathetic to Hitler's government also, until it became obvious that Hitler was a madman determined to eliminate the Jews from the Third Reich. Hearst even published and paid for essays written by Hitler and Mussolini.

"More circling of the wagons," Medoff says. "Instead of just coming clean and admitting that Columbia was wrong to expel Burke, Professor Rosenthal offers what sounds like an attempt to rationalize the expulsion. I understand that this is embarrassing for Columbia, but after seventy years, one would have expected a more mature response."

A very measured and realistic statement.

Did Columbia and Brown break any laws? If not, that should be the end of it.

I wonder what Senator Kennedy has to say about all this.

Columbia is also the home of the Pulitzer that gave Duranty a Prize for covering up Communist Genocide in 1932

Hmmmmm? Brings to mind another NY institution and it's 1930's bootlicking of another tyranny.

Two words: Walter Duranty.

What I'd like to see - something really telling - would be an examination of Academe's relationship to Marxism and global communist tyranny. Hanging 100 million murders around the neck of the pointy headed geeks at your local university ought to be easier than conjuring Nazi ghosts at Columbia.

What's Harvard's excuse gonna be?

[popdonnelly]

Hey, Butler sounds just like a modern university official! Free speech for totalitarian thugs, PC for everyone else.

[Thunder90]

Didn't Columbia University hold lectures by Iranian government officials???

[FreePaul]

Didn't some of the oldest Northeast colleges support, encourage and cheer on drowning witches? Universities "go with the flow" without regard for the morality. Drowning witches, communism, "diversity" or any other fad is the way of life of campus.

brownshirts at your alma mater

I see little no difference between national socialists (Nazis) and international socialists (Commies). They were both despicable. When this is recognized, we will have made progress. Until then, Nazi bashing is just a way to give cover to Commies.

Roosevelt, and others, called Stalin "Uncle Joe." Did anyone call Hitler "Uncle Adolph?" Now that would be parity.

And this is different from our educating Saudi students...just how?
