Academic Freedom at Southern Utah University
KC Johnson recently posted an interesting piece to his blog about a case involving a professor at Southern Utah University.
I attempted to contact Dr. Roberds to find out more about his case when it first came to our attention. While FIRE typically avoids “pure” tenure cases, if the facts are as clear as they appear here, FIRE may be able to help. We have yet to hear from Dr. Roberds directly.
