QUOTE OF THE DAY. Market Power's Phil Miller reacts to a petition to exclude a faculty member with a different perspective from the National Mathematics Advisory Panel.
Doing research and making claims. Having others criticise that research and provide evidence against the claims. The back and forth. That's the process of discovery. That's what true academic researchers do. But it's things like this petition where researchers have their career aspirations hampered by taking unpopular positions that hampers the process of discovery that should be the focus of academic research.
Read and understand.
