Why was my original posting removed when I posted it a few minutes ago?

My comments then were "if the professor doesn't claim to be judge, then why did she endorse the lacrosse students removal in the first place" and "so much for presumption of innocence till proven guilty".

DURHAM, N.C. - A Duke University professor resigned from her committee assignments, saying she was upset by the administration's decision to invite two lacrosse players accused of sexual assault back to campus.

Good riddance. Now if all the other professors who signed on to that ad would resign, Duke would be in great shape.

Per FoxNews this morning, the accuser has, yet again, changed her story.

Professor Hollaway is black and female. The accused are white and male. Any questions?

Does that mean she has left the building completely?

In case anyone wondered how this "professor" could have already "judged" the white boys guilty..

Just one more person who feels it her duty to prove that my user name tells the truth.

Despite our judgments about the prosecutor's own lack of principled conduct, it is not ours to become the judge or subvert the process," she wrote

Hmmmmmm. It appears that the professor believes our process is "guilty until proven innocent."

She was probably looking for an excuse to get out of some lousy committee assignments that probably were useless and a waste of time. And voila! Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

She didn't quit her job, just her "Campus Culture Committee" assignment. And the MSM is reporting it like it is a big deal.

Review of her record indicates that she threatens to quit something or other every six months or so.

Apparently she intends to keep her position as a member of the Spanish Inquisition.

Why didn't she resign her professorship and take her show on the road?

So, in her mind, the faculty should presume these kids are guilty (despite the lack of credible evidence) until proven innocent? And this is the 5th highest ranked school in the nation? OOOOOOOkkkkkkk......

Duke's black faculty caucus.

Once again, the left wing scum prove that it is never about justice, but only about RACE.

I beleieve this is the same professor that wrote an article for the daily newspaper there defending the ad that she and some faculty members had placed.

Being a liberal means never having to say you're sorry.

A Duke University professor resigned from her committee assignments..

But did she resign from her job? My guess is no. Big deal, you step down from some dumb committees. The paycheck keeps coming however. How convenient.

Can they fire her? That would be the first step in many needed to even begin to restore Duke's reputation.
