University of Rochester students protest professor who backed Limbaugh
A new manifestation of the Sandra Fluke case: Thirty students created a wall between professor Steven Landsburg and his class, after Landsburg voiced support for Rush Limbaugh’s insulting descriptions of Georgetown student Sandra Fluke. In a statement released to staff and students, University president Joel Seligman was also quick to condemn the professor’s comments, saying, “we are here to educate, to nurture, to inspire, not to engage in character assassination.” (photo by Jesse Partrick) source
