This was sent to me today. I have met Dr. Campbell and a big fan of his

work. Please take the time to to sign the petition. This is

happening at Cornell, and still has the hand of dairy industry pulling strings.

Thanks for your support. Please distribute this to all your contacts and

lists.

Get involved - Maintain Academic Freedom for Plant-Based Nutrition:

 

Some of you may know that a course Dr. Campbell formerly taught to Cornell

Undergraduates was pulled from the course catalog in 2005, without explanation

or the opportunity for discussion. That course was NS200 - Vegetarian

Nutrition, and had been taught by Dr. Campbell for a number of years with very

good

feedback from the students. The faculty member who made the decision to pull

the course has strong ties to the dairy industry, and has never offered any

explanation for his decision or opportunity for discussion. Dr. Campbell has

tried to resolve this internally at Cornell for the last year, with little to

no success.

 

The time has come to appeal to the Cornell Administration with outside

involvement. The T. Colin Campbell Foundation has created an internet petition

at

< _http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/academicfreedom/_

(http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/academicfreedom/) > . We ask you to sign

this petition and to

send it to as many supporters of plant-based nutrition and academic freedom

that you can think of. We cannot allow such a flagrant breach of integrity to

determine what information is permitted and what is censored for students,

especially at an institution such as Cornell..
