Regents vote to fire Churchill
Boulder — Regents at the University of Colorado voted 8-1 today to terminate ethnic studies professor Ward Churchill.
The vote was made en masse; regent Cindy Carlisle was the lone vote in favor of keeping Churchill.
Immediately after the announcement, protestors began a loud demonstration in the Glen Miller Ballroom of CU's Memorial Hall, with chants and drums.
Churchill's lawyer, David Lane, has said he has a lawsuit ready to be filed. He alleges that the regents were acting in retaliation for the professor's controversial comments about victims of the 2001 terrorist attacks.
Churchill, Lane and a handful of faculty members held a news conference immediately after the announcement.
