Stanley Fish on the Ward Churchill verdict.

ADVERTISEMENTS

"The verdict did not surprise me because I had read the committee?s report and found it less an indictment of Churchill than an example of a perfectly ordinary squabble about research methods and the handling of evidence. The accusations that fill its pages are the kind scholars regularly hurl at their polemical opponents. It?s part of the game. But in most cases, after you?ve trashed the guy?s work in a book or a review, you don?t get to fire him. Which is good, because if the standards for dismissal adopted by the Churchill committee were generally in force, hardly any of us professors would have jobs."
