It’s just been announced that North Carolina State English professor Cat Warren is the new editor of Academe, the in-house rag of the professoriate’s most prominent representative organization, the American Association of University Professors. Warren once compared pro-life students in North Carolina to Holocaust deniers.

Winfield Myers comments — fairly – that this twisted analogy “reveals the extreme views of the academic feminist left, which has perhaps the strictest orthodoxies of any group among the modern university’s victimology studies warriors.”

And what does Warren’s mindset suggest about directions at the AAUP? No break, and even perhaps an intensifying, of unabashed, virulent displays of the group’s characteristic leftist bias and intolerance.
