Ward Churchill update

In Elephants in Academia: Find the time, buddy, AcademicElephant brings us the news that a panel investigating Ward Churchill is expected to deliver its report next week.

Ward Churchill is the tenured ethnic studies professor at the University of Colorado who rather idiotically tried to make comparisons between Nazis and people murdered in the September 11 attacks. As I understand it, this panel has been looking into allegations of plagiarism and misrepresentation unrelated to that mess.
