UW-Eau Claire: The (Departmental) Chair Flips Over a (College Republican) Table

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               


                                                                                                                                 









Fox News is reporting today that the University of Wisconsin at Eau Claire has placed a professor-the chair of the English Department, no less, Jose Felipe Alvergue, on administrative leave after he allegedly flipped over a College Republican's table on campus Tuesday. The Fox link is no longer available, but The College Fix has a report here.

Checking in the Spectator, the campus newspaper, I see no mention of this incident, but if it's a weekly paper, they may have it in their next edition. In the meantime, their opinion section has an interesting op-ed about unreported news. As I commented in the comment section, hopefully, this story will not go unreported in the Spectator. I would hate to think, after all, that the College Republicans are a "marginalized" group on campus.
