WARD CHURCHILL, CONTROVERSIAL FORMER UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO PROFESSOR, DIES AT 78.

Churchill was a longtime professor of ethnic studies at CU Boulder. He became a nationally controversial figure in higher education after an essay he wrote that referred to some of the victims of the 9/11 attacks as “little Eichmanns,” a characterization that prompted widespread condemnation and made Churchill a national figure.

The controversy soon expanded beyond his writings about the 9/11 attacks.

In 2005, the University of Colorado launched a formal investigation into allegations that Churchill had plagiarized portions of other people’s work, misused sources and fabricated material. University officials also investigated allegations that he had misrepresented his American Indian ancestry.

Churchill was the subject of many a blogpost at Instapundit back in the day if you wish to scroll through the archives.

AMERICA 250: King George Learns Americans Have Declared Independence

COLOMBIA QUAKE DEATH TOLL TOPS 250 AS RESCUERS RACE TO FIND SURVIVORS:

Rescue crews on Tuesday dug through ​mountains of rubble in western Colombia, shouting for quiet so they could listen for survivors still trapped under the buildings that collapsed in a powerful earthquake ‌estimated to have killed at least 250 people.

The 7.4-magnitude quake, the most devastating to strike Colombia this century, tore through its coffee-growing heartland early on Monday, leaving apartment blocks, homes, schools and health centers cracked, leaning or flattened.

Separate reports from affected cities put the death toll at 254 on Tuesday morning, with 101 people killed in Pereira, deep in coffee country, and 95 in Cali, the country’s third-biggest city.

Absolutely horrific footage emerging from the quake, which Reuters lists as the strongest earthquake in Columbia in a century:

This is the WORST Earthquake footage I have ever seen pray for Columbia🙏 pic.twitter.com/xg89rPbZ2O

According to the Spanish Website Demócrata, there are no buildings in Columbia that were rated “to withstand an earthquake of magnitude 7.4…The true test of the regulations will come now, when technicians analyze which constructions were damaged, when they were built, under what regulation, what type of soil they had, and whether their structures were executed according to the approved designs. Only then can it be determined where seismic-resistant construction worked and where it failed.”
