"Florida State University's economics department needs to reconsider its relationship with billionaire Charles G. Koch, who pledged $1.5 million to the school as long as professors hired with the money hew to Koch's Libertarian philosophy. The arrangement reeks of pandering and undermines academic freedom, the cornerstone of American higher education." Full Article | St. Petersburg Times

Comments:
David Irwin Koch is disgusting, and so is his deal with FSU. I'm ashamed.

It's a lie. We can prove that it's impoverishing the majority and destroying the planet, and it's got to go.

By the way, the Student Government Association's Environmental and Sustainability Issues Committee is bringing Ralph Nader to the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point on April 19." FULL ARTICLE HERE | SocialistWorker.org
