Anton Chaitkin, writing in the Executive Intelligence Review (published and edited by right-wing populist-extremist Lyndon LaRouche, Jr.) accuses me (and PBC contributor Anne Neal, and many other of our fellow higher-education reformers) of “attempting to impose a Gestapo over American education that would wipe out resistance” and of being part of “a political dirty-tricks cartel, centered on the Vice President’s wife, Lynne Cheney, and Wall Street operative John Train.”

This is yet another insane conspiracy theory, and I for one am proud to have made this Who’s Who list of intrepid reformers.
