In clear conscience I have to say that no employer has a right to his job absent a written contract specifying terms of dismissal, yet this certainly makes the school look both bad and silly.

If he applies for unemployment benefits he will probably win his case.

The article says that the fired professor is tenured, and according to common practice in academia he can't be fired without a very good cause. Or at least he was tenured until his anti-American moonbat colleagues accused him of the crime of being both a patriotic American and a college professor at the same time.

It's incredible that something this outrageous could happen in America, but I suppose something at least equally as outrageous happens somewhere in America every day now that the anti-American radical left is being allowed to have it's perverted way in every aspect of American life.

OK, now I'm definitely leaving this thread.

What part of "tenured professor" is giving you trouble?

Of course the school has contracted not to dismiss him for having opinions.

he has TENURE

(a concept invented by teachers for teachers which means: you can’t fire me for any reason (unless you find out I am a conservative)
