Wonderful. I am in, whatever in is.<br>

I'm wondering whether Native American Studies may already need that
kind of supportive protection. Does anyone know what's been
happening with their department over the last year? I don't, but
from people's expressions it sounds as though the University
administration has not been kind to them in more ways than Salaita's
un-hiring.<br>

<div>Let's publish it for the world - a "Pledge of Resistance,"
if you will - that while we would certainly understand
perfectly well why Steven Salaita might have a bad taste in
his mouth about re-accepting his appointment to the University
of Illinois when his appointment is re-instated, if he does
accept it we will welcome him back into the Champaign-Urbana
community with open arms, and form a "band of brothers" to
protect him from the News-Gazette until the Snooze-Gazoo
accepts that further attempts to harass Salaita and abridge
his First Amendment and employee rights will be totally
futile, Then they'll have to content themselves with nostalgia
for the racist Chief mascot. Oops, did I say "mascot"? I meant
to say "symbol."</div>
