SUING STUDENTS over charges of racism in the classroom. “Greg Lukianoff, president of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, said the Peltz case was typical of many that come to FIRE in that they involve professors accused of racism or sexism based on statements or views that some students find objectionable. He said that college leaders are responsible for situations like the one faced by Peltz by not defending professors whose views are unpopular.”

I should note that FIRE does good work, and if you’re looking to make an end of the year charitable donation, you could do a lot worse than sending some cash their way.
