Suspended Marquette prof RIPS into president for demanding apology in gay-marriage dispute
Prof. John McAdams has made it clear that he’s going to sue Marquette University for suspending and banishing him from campus on the pretext that he somehow threatened campus safety by defending a student who opposes gay marriage.
But first he’s going to publicly rip into the head of the Jesuit school for blatantly violating his due process as a tenured faculty member.
President Michael Lovell told McAdams in a letter last month he’d have to admit his “guilt” for blogging about a graduate student instructor’s silencing of a conservative undergrad, or otherwise would be fired, according to McAdams’ lawyer. Lovell’s decision is based on third-party hate mail the instructor, Cheryl Abbate, received following McAdams’ post that named her.

Good for him. He has an excellent case and could get a lot from Marquette. Tenured faculty cannot be treated the way he was according to the AAUP guidelines put in every faculty handbook in every decent college or university in the USA. The president of the institution should be fired and never allowed to head a college or university. I thought that this was a catholic university which had the welfare of it’s employees held to the highest standards. I would not send my child to such a place. It has no ethics nor morals.
