Join NAS this Friday, January 27, at 3 pm ET for "Standing Against Institutional Capture."
Academia has been thoroughly captured by its ideological and intellectual enemies. An academic who stands up to defend cherished academic ideals, such as freedom of inquiry and freedom of discourse, increasingly finds himself isolated and abandoned, even by colleagues who should be standing with him in solidarity. What’s going on?
The discussion will feature Bradley Watson, a former professor at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, where he held the Philip M. McKenna Chair in American and Western Political Thought. He resigned from this position in 2022 after a firestorm of controversy erupted over a presentation on race and politics, a controversy abetted enthusiastically by his Saint Vincent colleagues. He has written of his experience in The American Spectator ([link removed]) , where he described the “moral virtue of courage” as “a virtue that is in catastrophically short supply” in our institutions. He is presently Associate Professor of Government ([link removed]) at the Washington campus of Hillsdale College.
The discussion will be moderated by J. Scott Turner, Director of the Intrusion of Diversity into the Sciences Project at the National Association of Scholars.
