FIRE Wins Another Case

George Leef

I wrote about the astonishing case of a professor at East Georgia College about two years ago; he was fired summarily for having had the temerity to criticize the school's sexual harassment policy. Just recently the case was settled for a mere $50,000. Read about it here. That seems like small compensation for the damage the college inflicted, but maybe there simply wasn't more to be gotten.
