that’s evil.

i had never thought of such a maneuver of passing off one’s own ideas as those of another scholar thereby legitimizing these ideas.

unbelievable.

Ward is a POS and ‘evil.’ He is protected by many others who know how these scams work...


The conclusion one must draw from such examples isn’t that every institution has its bad apples but rather that, at least in the liberal arts in America, moral turpitude and political hucksterism pervades higher education.

Radical criminals with questionable academic credentials flourish in a milieu that bristles with hostility toward real scholars who don’t toe the party line—witness the case of former Harvard President Lawrence Summers.

Individuals with prison records or FBI rap sheets don’t get into major educational institutions because they fudge their resumes.

They get in because they share the political dogmas of those who hire them—and they flourish for the same reason.
