Yes, I actually teach at a university. No, I will never reveal my identity.

Case in point, Detroit Free Press:

An Islamic student group at Michigan State University demanded Monday that university officials publicly reprimand a professor whose Feb. 28 e-mail called on Muslims who don't "like the values of the West" to leave the United States....

In addition to a reprimand, the student group wants the university to implement diversity training programs for faculty and a mandatory freshman seminar on hate and discrimination.

Who would have thought that Belmont University of Nashville, Tennessee, would apply the Islamic law to its staff? But just that happened earlier this month.

More from Michelle.

Update: So, you say bad things about Islam: you're fired or reprimmanded; you say only good things about Islam, yet are a partisan Democrat then Yale wants to hire you. The academy in a nutshell.

Former academic Joyner, and present academic Taylor chime in.

Another update: Speaking of Steven Vincent, it turns out that Cole took swipes at Vincent not a week after he had been murdered. Class act, all around.

And another former academic, Jeff Goldstein, has more on Cole here.

Warning: Image below clearly violates Islamic law and may be deemed offensive. View at own risk.
