Let's see teaching/research resume includes, Pennsylvania, Harvard, Washington and Wisconsin. Can you say mega-liberal. Most employers would have dumped him on his first offense in 1999. In that world he just became a more valuable member of academia. I bet if they took a vote the majority of the faculty at Penn would vote to allow him to keep tenure.

Enough said about the state of our higher education system.

Well, he got his PHD in 1968, so he may even be of the "Fashionably Marxist" crowd....I understand that there are scads of them in Economics departments, as this was of course one of the popular ways to attempt to foist Socialism on the rest of us...spinning tales of the 'Soviet Miracle' while expounding upon (easily discredited) Socialist economic theory was, in the view of many fellow travelers, the surest route to getting that red hammer and sickle flag hoisted over the White House.  In the college classrooms and lecture halls, the doors are shut tight when the Professor mounts his podium and so those pesky irritants like facts and truth can't come in and disrupt things....

Although I did learn a few useful things in college, I found that it mainly got in the way of my education and I was delighted to leave.  Fortunately I never knowingly encountered a pedophile (fortunate for the pedophile because he would have been killed, fortunate for me because the Societal Defense angle wouldn't have held up in court)
