Former CU-Boulder professor Ward Churchill loses appeal to win job back
Camera ^ | 09/10/2012 | Brittany Anas

Ward Churchill's attorney plans to appeal the fired professor's case to the U.S. Supreme Court after the state's high court ruled Monday in favor of the University of Colorado.

In the immediate aftermath of Sept. 11, the firebrand CU professor compared some World Trade Center victims to a notorious Nazi.

The Board of Regents fired him in 2007 for academic misconduct after discovering patterns of plagiarism and fabrication in his body of work. Churchill has been trying to get his job back on the Boulder campus, where he taught ethnic studies.

He won a lawsuit against the university in 2009. But while a Denver jury found that CU had unlawfully fired Churchill for exercising his right to free speech, it only awarded him $1 -- and the district judge declined to give him his job back.

The state Supreme Court heard Churchill's appeal in June and issued its ruling against him Monday.

Amazing ruling.

CO Supreme court is packed with Leftists.

His attorney must have really flubbed this one.

He’s going to keep this up until he goes to the happy hunting ground.

It’s not unreasonable to believe that calculating media darling David Lane tanked his argument in order to be able to appeal to the SCOTUS.

Isn’t it interesting that he’s taken the legal warpath for his career? He’s such an obvious fraud that no one would hire him after his stint at Colorado.

He should ask his fellow Injun, Fauxcohauntus to sponsor a senate resolution that CU has to give him his old job back.

Who knows? Harry Reid is scummy enough to put it up for a vote.
