I know the UW prof that was on the receiving end of the outrage over his use of the word “niggardly” in the classroom.
Big lib. Didn’t learn anything.
VERY good chance he was a liberal then and maybe still is
That was exactly the same thought I had..... former VP of university relations 1968-83 = politically correct, white, socialist liberal. Any university back then or today, simply does not hire or promote people with a conservative mindset or principles.
I would be willing to bet his white guilt-ridden complex may not be quite so active any more. He may even be contemplating C&C for all we know.
