Ward Churchill won't stay dead, so ..

Ward Churchill is still at it?
Ward Churchill appeal: If he doesn't win,
"tenure means nothing anymore"

WTFF?!?

Last April, a jury found that controversial CU professor Ward Churchill had been fired from his job in part because of statements he'd made. But jurors like Bethany Newell only awarded Churchill $1 in damages -- and in July, Judge Larry Naves declined to order that Churchill be reinstated.

That's the kind of ruling that begs for an appeal -- and now, one has arrived. [Arrrrrrgh!]

If academia can't get rid itself of a Ward Churchill, then "tenure" needs to be killed with a wooden stake through its heart.  Actually, that needs to happen in any event.
