The Unholy Alliance of College Administrators and Left-Liberal Activists

overrode a finding by the faculty's Committee on Faculty Rights
and Responsibilities (CFRR) in the case of Donald Hindley, a longtime and somewhat cantankerous political science professor
who had been accused of racial harassment by an anonymous
student in his Latin American politics class. The accuser averred
that Hindley had used the term "wetback" to refer to illegal immigrants from Mexico. Hindley asserted, in response, that he had
employed the term during a historical discussion as an example
of the racist invective to which Mexican immigrants had been
subjected. University officials seemed to have little or no interest
in determining exactly what was said in Hindley's class. Instead,
they quickly sided with campus activists and treated the episode
as an opportunity to take a strong public stand against racism and
discriminatory conduct, and an opportunity to be rid of another
gadfly. The university's provost assigned human resources staffers to conduct a brief investigation, sent a staffer to monitor
Hindley's classes, and threatened the professor with termination
if he failed to modify his classroom conduct.
In a similar vein, in 2015, Marquette University sought to revoke
the tenure of Professor John McAdams, who in a blog post had
criticized the instructor of a philosophy course for telling a student that it was inappropriate to express opposition to same-sex
marriage in class. The instructor told the student that some in
the class might be offended by his views. Marquette suspended
McAdams and barred him from class, claiming that he represented a threat to student safety. Ironically, Marquette is a Jesuit
school that is surely officially opposed to same-sex marriage. Still,
the college administration, apparently not troubled by minor
matters of Catholic dogma, saw an opportunity to be rid of their
persistent critic McAdams.
