Re: FAU prof stirs controversy by disputing Newtown massacre
I am sure that many of you are aware of the recent comments by a Florida Atlantic University faculty member regarding the tragic events that occurred at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, on December 14. I want to make it clear that those views and opinions are not shared by Florida Atlantic University, and I am personally saddened by any media stories that have added to the pain felt by the victims’ families.
FAU joins the entire nation and people around the world in feeling profound grief for the lives lost on that awful day. Our hearts break for the victims, their loved ones and friends, and all the people of Newtown. The world lost innocent children and brave adults whose lives were dedicated to education. In the aftermath of this terrible tragedy, we learned of the tremendous heroism of the Sandy Hook teachers and administrators. We admire their courage in the face of unspeakable horror and we honor their memory.
Mary Jane Saunders, Ph.D.

I bet FAU has a policy against making public remarks that have a negative impact on FAUs reputation but its a slippery slope.

I think everyone wants to know FAU's stance on him as an employee, not the obvious??
I've heard he has tenure, FWIW.

Why's it matter? They cannot fire him, that pesky First Amendment protects him. ;)

For the rest of you, Welcome to Florida, a right to work state, I don't have to give you a reason to can your ass. The first amendment allows you to say whatever you want but it does not protect you from being fired for making inflammatory remakes that reflect poorly on your employer. Careful what you say on these message boards ;) especially you white males under 40, you have no protected class and no one will hear your cries of discrimination, muahahahahahah!
