Today’s L.A. Times has a stirring defense of academic freedom by David N. Myers (“In defense of academic freedom“). It looks like the Department of Politics and Government of Ben-Gurion University of the Negev is about to be shut down by the Likudniks. No surprise, given that the professors there have criticized the government, one professor going so […]
