Townhall columnist and academic Mike Adams and I disagree as often as we agree. Nevertheless, the fact that a jury has found in his favor regarding his right to speak and write opinions that liberal colleagues on the University of North Carolina-Wilmington faculty find offensive is good news indeed.
Writing in National Review, lead attorney David French says Adams was singled out by the university's administration for "punishment" which took the form of a refusal to promote him to full professor.
On most campuses, being a conservative professor is difficult at best, and nearly impossible if one is outspoken. Preferring a quiet life, I kept my conservative views largely private. I am not proud to have done so.
