Well don't worry too much - Duke as a whole will survive, they will still have their endowment and the institution is not going anywhere, but the administration and the faculty members who behaved so recklessly should pay a heavy price (knowing liberal academia as well as I do, they probably won't face the slightest sanction, but they should).
There should be a serious house-cleaning of the PC-fanatic administration. They probably can't/won't do anything about tenured faculty who took part in the lynch mob, but if any of the "88" are not tenured they do not deserve to be.....
fwiw, the worst scumbag I encountered in quite a few years around academia was a liberal dean from Duke who was a real POS. Yeah, it was just one person, but also a character-type..... a PC-vicious POS who was in every way just like the "88" ..... ready to frame and fry innocent people for political convenience.
I totally agree there should be a house-cleaning. Although, I must say, now exposed, the 88 pose much less of a threat than they did before everyone was wise to their vitriole. I don't wish them on any other institution. I'd prefer to see them driven out of academia period. I am also not so naive as to think there wouldn't be 89 more to take their place.....
Is this someone connected to the current Hoax?
Well, are you going to keep the identity of the vicious, PC, POS a secret, or what?
