- Abstract:
The article reports that David Horowitz, a California activist admitted that he lacked evidence to back up two of his past allegations of faculty bias in Pennsylvania colleges. His allegations were that a biology professor at Pennsylvania State University inappropriately showed students the film "Fahrenheit 9/11" and that a professor in California who opposes abortion gave a student a low grade for supporting it. But in two days of testimony at Temple University, only two students voiced any complaints about professorial bias, prompting some Democratic lawmakers to complain that the whole exercise was a waste of time.
