Sandy Paton McCarthyism ... were you there? (116* d) RE: McCarthyism ... were you there? 04 Sep 01

I don't know abour Steinbeck, but when the Board of Regents of the University of Washington overruled the Tenure Committee and fired several professors who had refused to cooperate with the Canwell Committee, it set off a wave of similar firings at Universities around the country. Many college administrators were afraid to stand up and defend the right of their faculties to freedom of thought. "Get rid of 'em now, before they come after us!" seems to have been the order of the day.
