Churchill expects to be fired Tuesday

If you've ever wondered just how difficult it is to fire a tenured professor, now you know (2+ years)

University of Colorado regents will decide whether to fire professor Ward Churchill after a special meeting and hearing Tuesday.

The university's regents — the week before a decision viewed as a defining mark in the university's 131-year history — are poring over more than 1,000 pages of documents pertaining to Churchill's academic-misconduct case. They will hold a closed-door hearing preceding their pivotal public vote Tuesday on whether Churchill should be fired.
