Manhattan grand jury has subpoenaed the university records of the controversial black Columbia Teachers College professor who found a noose hanging from her office door - signaling that the investigation is broadening to examine possible links between the teacher, her closest friends and the racially charged incident, The Post has learned.
According to sources, the subpoenas obtained recently by the NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force and prosecutors demanded the college hand over a laundry list of records pertaining to embattled professor Madonna Constantine, whose colleague found a 4-foot hangman's noose on her office doorknob last October.

It's pure undiluted academic gibberish. It allows academics to keep their jobs without the bother of any real subject matter or substance.
The truth is that at any serious school she would be out on her a$$ for the extent of her plagarism. I've known undergrads that were expelled and tenured professors that were fired for less cause.

LOL!
Thanks!! I appreciate your explanation. It sounded like gibberish to me, too.
LOL, seriously? Even if the video shows one of her "acquaintances" hanging the noose, she'll deny any knowledge of it. No honor among thieves.
"Constantine has denied any involvement in the noose incident and has also continued to fight the findings that she stole others' works as her own."
