UVSC prof sounds off on the influence of "Community Values"

Ethics Center director David Keller, has published an article in Academe (the journal for the American Association of University Professors).

Academic Freedom vs. Community Values?


While Keller has a few facts slightly skew, and a condescending tone, it does make for fun reading for those familiar with UVSC's struggles with meeting the expectations of the surrounding community.

One part in particular caught our attention came from an anonymous letter that Keller and other "liberal" professors received early in 2006:

“Eventually, people with a strong Left-wing orientation . . . will leave UVSC because the community will not abide them. They will realize that they cannot be happy here. And like it or not, the community—especially this one—calls the shots.”

Former president of College Republicans changes sides

Former president of UVSC's chapter of the College Republicans Bryan Horn has renounced his GOP affiliation and will be running as a Democrat in next year's state legislature race.

You might remember Horn from his College Republican days, as he was one of the most active presidents the club ever had. To get a taste of some of the positions he once held dear, head on over to the College Times website and type in "Bryan Horn" into the search box.

Perhaps Michael Moore, The Vagina Monologues, and all those left-wing professors have succeeded in brain-washing even the most elect. Maybe Norm Nielsen and Kay Anderson were right all along.

God Speed Bryan Horn! The Green and Gold are pulling for you!
