What’s Really Going on at DePaul?
As the fall semester commences tomorrow at De Paul University, Professor Finkelstein faces the chances of being arrested as he is expected to try to return to his old office in order to teach his Political Science course. On Monday, there were accusations made by University officials that accuse him of demonstrating “threatening and discourteous behavior. “
Peter Kirstein’s blog claims a Chicago Tribune article reported that there was inappropriate behaviour on the part of Dr Finkelstein that included harassment and intimidation of university personnel.
St. Jimbob of the Apokalypse explains why he’s intrigued by De Paul’s willingness to defend one kind of orthodoxy while, at the same time, allowing other heterodoxy’s.
