On 17 March 2009, at 9am, Professor Denis Rancourt met for the final confidential meeting with the University of Ottawa high administration over dismissal proceedings against him. See http://www.academicfreedom.ca/ for more information.
he was not fired for giving A+'s but for criticizing Uottawa leadership. They are extremely vengeful of criticism and even had Rancourt arrested, along with a handful of students, for criticizing Rock and friends. Rancourt had accused Rock of being loyal to Israeli-Canadian lobbies.
Rancourt is a hero- whether you believe in the side-show of the A+ question or not, because he's challenging the academic police state that has dominating control over the sheep's education. The reason he's being persecuted is because he is very dangerous to the U of O administration in that he threatens to expose their methods of mind control over each generation
I'm so glad to see this laughing stock gone from the university.
By all means, change how you grade your students - but auto-A+ is a horrible method of encouraging learning.
I've met his grad students and students who speak highly of him. Believe me, these students will not be making any breakthroughs for the benefit of mankind. In truth, this whole debacle is generated by those who cannot do. Those who cannot do, simply complain.
