“Thus when not so long ago, Kenyon explained his views on Intelligent Design to his introductory biology course, his department used this as a pretext to remove him from teaching introductory biology and to relegate him to supervising lab experiments–this even though he was a senior faculty member.
Every review committee confirmed that Kenyon’s department had violated his academic freedom.
It took three meetings of successively more weighty academic review committees at his institution to lean on the biology department sufficiently to reinstate Kenyon’s right to teach introductory biology, and this only after another Design theorist, Stephen Meyer, wrote an op-ed piece for the Wall Street Journal detailing Kenyon’s treatment at the hands of his department.”
