Is Chemerinsky going to continue to represent Guantanamo detainees while acting as Dean of UCI’s law school?
Good. Eliminating someone for ideological reasons is ridiculous unless it is brought into the classroom.
“Our new law school will be founded on the bedrock principle of academic freedom,”
This is generally Newspeak for absolute intolerance of Christianity, patriotism and anything even remotely perceived as politically incorrect. Students with unpopular views will be flunked, harassed and disciplined unless they keep their mouths shut, and pay homage to the god of diversity, hate, and ideological facism.
“academic freedom” is PC speak meaning the “academic”; i.e., the professor, has absolute freedom, while the students, the Board of Regents, the taxpayer (who foots the bill) can go pound sand.
The general public believes that “academic freedom” conveys freedom of speech at the academy. The reality is that only the “academics” get freedom of speech. If you don’t believe it, then try being a conservative student or faculty member at one of these institutions that embrace “academic freedom”.
UCI Regents are idiots. Last year they refused to be held accountable in millions of dollars that seem to disappear in perks and benefits.
They clearly don’t know how to run this institution which is why the medical facilities have ground to nothing.
If you go to bed with dogs you get Fleas.
