OUR PREMIER UNIVERSITIES AND ACADEMIC FREEDOM

UCLA fired a professor of 34 years for publishing a scientific report that they disagreed with--not based on the science but on the politics. The professor's report disputed a major finding of the California Air Resources Board (CARB) about air polution. After submitting his report to CARB, the professor (James Enstrom) was fired. Turns out two of the people associated with CARB were powerful UCLA professors and his report was in opposition to regulations that they were tying to get implimented. CARB had based their actions on a "scientific" report by someone who it turns out had purchased a PHD from a bogus university.
