A Law School Grudgingly Acknowledges Academic Freedom – Jonathan Marks, Commentary Magazine
In March, University of San Diego School Law Professor Thomas Smith found himself under investigation for a racist blog post with students calling for his resignation. The investigation has now ended with the finding that Smith s speech is protected by [USD s] policy on academic freedom. After all, as provost Gail F. Baker says, that lies at the core of the mission of the University of San Diego.
