A FALLEN WARRIOR.

For years, we have followed the battles of John "Marquette Warrior" McAdams, who has called attention to the follies of virtue signalling among Marquette's administration, gotten himself in trouble for speaking his mind, with latter-day inquisitors offering him the opportunity to recant, or be excommunicated, and he's long been a thorn in the side of the careerists in charge of that basketball school, as well as occasionally linking to our stuff.

Marquette announces his passing. with his "The Logic of Social Inquiry: The Kennedy Assassination" still in progress.  Right Wisconsin's James Wigderson offers recollections.

What we’ll remember most about McAdams during this fight is how Marquette University blocked him from the classroom, his students, and his office. Banned from campus, McAdams wasn’t able to continue his scholarly work. His one desire was to return to the classroom and teach students again. Over and over again, McAdams would emphasize his desire to return to the students.

Even before the blog post controversy, McAdams was not a favorite of the Marquette Administration. His blog was named after the former nickname for the school’s athletic teams, The Warriors. The blog name was a poke at the political correctness of Marquette which had decided to abandon the name because of fears of upsetting Native Americans.

McAdams kept up the blog, even during his fight with Marquette over his employment.

RIP.
