We are deeply concerned about reports of outside interference into the tenure and promotion case of Dr. Norman Finkelstein, and that as a result he may not be awarded tenure from DePaul University.

Harvard Law Professor Works to Disrupt Tenure Bid of Longtime Nemesis at DePaul U.

We value Dr. Finkelstein's scholarship, his public talks and debates,
and his well-argued, fact-based critiques of issues relating to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
In our opinion, his association with DePaul University has enhanced DePaul University's reputation.
We understand his department has recommended tenure. We will be troubled if Dr. Finkelstein is denied tenure and will be concerned about the integrity of the tenure process at DePaul University.
We support a fair tenure process for Dr. Finkelstein.

If you fail to grant Finkelstein tenure because of outside pressure of this sort, you may as well close your school.

He is a voice for sanity and reasonableness sadly lacking in academic circles these days.

i am absolutely disheartened and upset by what has happened to professor finkelstein. i had the pleasure of working with him briefly, and was inspired by his dedication, his intelligence, and his sense of conviction. the lest DePaul could do is be fair.

I am hoping that some day Prof. Finkelstein will get tenure so that his work will be renounced by his institution just as mine.
