Fired University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill will return to the Boulder campus next week to begin teaching an unsanctioned course that’s being organized by his student supporters.<\/p>\n

University officials have distanced themselves from the planned lecture series \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009d slated to begin Tuesday night \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and say that Churchill remains terminated.<\/p>\n

The students organizing Churchill’s teachings say the series is intended for those who “missed out” on his years as an American Indian studies professor and as head of the ethnic studies department at CU.<\/p>\n

Neither Churchill nor his student backers could be reached for comment Thursday.<\/p>\n

“He’s a professor, he likes to teach people \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009d so that’s what he’s doing,” said David Lane, Churchill’s attorney, who was unaware of his client’s planned lecture series.<\/p>\n

CU officials released a statement Thursday afternoon emphasizing that any students who attend Churchill’s discussions will not receive credit and the lectures aren’t endorsed by the university or considered to be sanctioned academic coursework.<\/p>\n

According to details posted on several Churchill-tracking blogs, the former professor’s free lecture series \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009d expected to run this fall and next spring \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009d begins with a session from 6:30 to 9:15 p.m. Tuesday in Humanities room 1B80. Syllabi will be handed out to students along with a schedule of class times and locations.<\/p>\n

Churchill’s supporters can hold the classes on campus because the university allows student groups to reserve classrooms when they are not in use.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

If Churchill’s special brand of anti-American, white guilt-fueled BDS is strong enough to get college students to attend extra classes<\/i> — for which they’ll receive no credit — somebody should figure out a way to hook that energy up to a turbine or something.<\/p>\n

My vote is for Al Gore — though I suppose one of the Kennedy’s might break out his honorary degrees in climate science and lend a hand.<\/p>\n

For the good of the earth<\/em>. Which, we all know, “Native Americans” like Churchill revered to such a point that they shaped the Amazon basin in their own image<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Plus, owls<\/em>!<\/p>\n
