This is blatantly unconstitutional and any professors disciplined under this would be in line for a fat settlement from the university. Or rather, they would be if our justice system actually worked.
Rule of law in the US is on life support and the prognosis is not good.
- lbriner 5y agoIf they were disciplined, yes, the "clever" part (read immoral but not unlawful) would be the University deciding that another Professor will get that senior position instead of you. You could fight it but it would be pretty easy in most situations to "prove" that the other candidate was better. I guess any academic needs to measure their conscience against their career as others in Politics or Religion also might have to.
