Harvard's Sandra Y.L. Korn: The Doctrine of Academic Freedom (When Multicultural Marxists start employing terms like 'obsession' and 'rigorous,' try to remain calm and sharply alert, as you would during an impending shark attack.)

The Doctrine of Academic Freedom

- - -

. . . Yet the liberal obsession with “academic 
freedom” seems a bit misplaced to me. After
all, no one ever has “full freedom” in 
research and publication. Which research 
proposals receive funding and what papers 
are accepted for publication are always 
contingent on political priorities. The words 
used to articulate a research question can 
have implications for its outcome. No 
academic question is ever “free” from 
political realities. If our university 
community opposes racism, sexism, and 
heterosexism, why should we put up with 
research that counters our goals simply in 
he name of “academic freedom”?

Instead, I would like to propose a more 
rigorous standard: one of “academic 
justice.” When an academic community 
observes research promoting or justifying 
oppression, it should ensure that this 
research does not continue. . . .
