麻豆传媒IOS鈥檚 Ashland University Case on Volokh
Our recent involvement at Ashland University continues to gain attention on the web with a post on the widely read blog by David Bernstein. Torch readers will recall that Ashland denied Professor John Lewis tenure for engaging in Objectivist scholarship that did not comport with the school鈥檚 鈥淛udeo-Christian tradition.鈥 This was after Ashland accepted $100,000 from a private foundation that granted the money expressly for the purpose of funding Lewis鈥 Objectivist research. Ashland ultimately granted Lewis tenure in exchange for his resignation, after 麻豆传媒IOS wrote to the university that Ashland was contractually obligated to uphold Lewis鈥 academic freedom and, as Bernstein noted, that Ashland鈥檚 academic regulations 鈥渕ade it far from clear that the professor, John Lewis, was violating university policy.鈥
