Lindy, what did you believe Beeman's outlook is after reading his Bio? Forget for a moment that you read my post with Beeman's article.

Thanks...looked up his bio last night. Also looked at some other talks or articles he had written. All VERY left leaning. Also, thought where the comma's were placed was interesting... The way it is listed is: Associate Professor, Anthropology and Theatre, Speech and Dance Director, Middle East Studies Does this mean he is: Associate Professor, Anthropology and Theatre, Speech and Dance Director, Middle East Studies Or did someone at the Brown University not know how to use commas? Is he a Speech and Dance Director or a Director of Middle East Studies.... What does a Director do? Does he/she direct the curriculum for the other Professors in the Department....?
