Widener Suspends Prof, Renews Controversy

Widener University has suspended a law professor, Larry Connell, even though he was cleared of charges of racial and sexual harassment, the Associated Press reported. The latest suspension -- which follows numerous battles between Connell and his dean -- is for his telling students about an earlier punishment he received. The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, which backs Connell, issued a statement with links to many of the documents and blog posts related to the dispute.
