Did anyone read the professor’s response?
I am completely out of sympathy with her attacks on Eikenberry, and would have been furious at her if I were a Northwestern administrator or faculty member.
On the other hand, however, the order barring her from campus and forcing her to get a psychiatric examination really does seem Stalinist. There appears to be no evidence that she has ever been violent, and the only evidence that she was out of control seems to have come from the unsupported complaint of a male faculty member against who she had previously lodged a complaint for shouting at her and slamming his door in her face. He denies that charge, of course, but she has a witness to support it. The rest of the complaints about her seem to be that she is an annoying, oppositional, left-wing academic – which seems true, but hardly justifies barring her from contact with students or firing her once she has tenure.
