The DePaul Academic Freedom Committee and other defenders of academic freedom and critical thinking are marching alongside the administrators in the faculty procession from DePaul University's Quad to the St. Vincent DePaul church for the university convocation to protest DePaul's denying tenure and firing of Professor Norman Finkelstein.

Finkelstein, son of holocaust survivors and outspoken critic of oppressive Israeli policy in Palestine, has come under attack from detractors like Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz, who seeks to silence critics of Israel and has successfully interfered in internal DePaul tenure processes.

Meet on the Quad at 9:00 a.m. Wear orange! The procession will begin at 10:00 a.m.

Friday, 9 -10 am
DePaul University Quad
