The professor at Smith, James Miller, I cited earlier today has apparently now been given a reprieve. He writes today:
I’m the professor you mentioned who was denied tenure at Smith College. Smith’s five person Grievance Committee, however, recently unanimously ruled that two members of my department violated my academic freedom during my tenure review. They recommended to Smith’s President that I be reconsidered for tenure and the President accepted this recommendation.
Good news.
