[Peace-discuss] [sf-core] L'ordre regne (as was said in Paris in '68) in Illinois

[Brussel, Morton K]

I cannot fathom why Salaita/his lawyers agreed to such a measly and unjust settlement!!!

It is disgusting and depressing.

The neoliberal university has won. (And it cost them less than half of firing an athletic director, for cause.)

What new faculty hire (or old faculty, for that matter) at UIUC will now take the chance of condemning Israel/US war crimes?

Anyone associated with universities knows how it's been done, since WWI. Excuses can always be found for punishing thought-crimes, regardless of 'academic freedom.'
What the UI administrators did wrong was let it get out of hand. Steven Salaita's career should have been quietly brought to an end much earlier, if he was going to talk like that. Read e.g. about the case of Scott Nearing and many others over the last century.

UI administrators were punished for ineptitude, not for violating academic freedom: that's part of their job.
