Prof. Robinson Case Terminated
On June 24, UCSB officials announced the end of the investigation of sociology and global studies professor William Robinson. Robinson, who became the focus of a debate on academic freedom that garnered worldwide attention, had been under review for circulating Internet material to his students that compared Israeli soldiers and Nazis.
The university’s verdict? Case closed and all charges dismissed. According to a letter from Executive Vice Chancellor Gene Lucas, “the [Charges] Committee did not find probable cause to undertake disciplinary action in this matter.”
