'Eighteen months ago," the Chronicle continues, "politicians and conservative critics of academe began calling for Mr. Churchill to be fired from his tenured post after an essay he wrote in 2001 became more widely known. In it, he described people who worked in the financial-services industry in the World Trade Center as 'little Eichmanns.'"
But "while plenty of people thought that was reason enough to fire the professor," the ivory tower's in-house press elaborates, "Mr. Churchill is not being dismissed for those comments. Instead, the firestorm over his essay led to increased scrutiny of his academic work and charges that he had plagiarized and fabricated material in his research. In May an investigative committee issued a 125-page report that found a pattern of research misconduct in Mr. Churchill's work and an unwillingness on his part to accept responsibility.'

I know the rent is in arrears
The dog has not been fed in years
It's even worse than it appears
But it's alright-
