Stifling scientific criticism
It appears certain to me that the Anthropology Department bowed to pressure from the administration, who themselves bowed to pressure from outside the university community, in an attempt to stifle my legitimate scientific criticisms of polar bear conservation issues. This kind of bullying has been happening far too often at universities, even in Canada.

Amazing article. One of several reasons I am no longer a Democrat. Though this issue took place in Canada, this kind of politics over science, anti free speech ethos seeps through many of my friends’ thoughts and wishes.

That is the reason why the objective of the Chicken little brigade has nothing to do with saving the planet. The objective is to gain power and money. To do that you have to shout down and stifle anyone who is not on board.

http://www.drroyspencer.com/category/blogarticle/ I know Dr Spencer is despised and hated on this forum. IMO his research and opinion is more than credible. My favorite part is reading all the debate back and forth from the eggheads that comment on Dr Spencers opinions.

The issue is NOT Dr. Spencer, but Dr. Crockford.

Everyone ok with what happened to her?

I wonder what Greta has to say about it? It must make her very angry. Time for her to sail to Canada and let them all know where the bull dropped the buckwheat.

There is at most circumstantial evidence due to dates of two normally unrelated event streams lining up. Not proof. This is the stuff of conspiracy theories.

Dr. Crockford is either naïve or lying in regards to the impact of the University's Adjunct Professor policy change. The policy change was directed at all adjunct positions and for an understandable reason. The policy change required that an actual University paid employee holding an academic position take responsibility for the actions of the adjunct volunteer. It is totally understandable. Was there any evidence provided that Dr. Crockford was the only adjunct effected. I did not see any. What happened in terms of the number of adjunct positions before and after the policy change?? I would guess the number of adjunct positions in the university declined.

Even if the policy change effected only Dr. Crockford, her described impact of what would happen to her career was pure bull. You do not need an academic position in order to participate in the academic community. Presenting papers, applying for grants and receiving grants. I did it successfully my entire life. Canada is no different as far as I know.

jhu72 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 27, 2019 7:55 pm Crockford's History with Polar Bears

Calling her an expert on Polar Bears is more bull, made up by the right wing media. Never published a peer reviewed article in ~15 years of so called study on the topic. She received monthly payments from the Heartland Institute, un-reported to the University and in her informal publications, between 2011 and 2013. This by itself is cause for dismissal from most universities -- un-reported conflict of interest. I can understand why no UVic professor would vouch for her. She is a fraud.

Adjunct professor is not meant to be a life long position for a young scientist. 15 years as an adjunct professor for someone who has never held another academic position says a lot about that adjunct professor. Not very good, not very serious. The position is generally used to fill funding gap years for young academics and to provide older, accomplished academics beyond the age of retirement with a place to hang their hat. Get a Ph.D. and spend the next 15 years as an adjunct is really abnormal. There are so many red flags with this woman. Of course the deniers aren't interested in this, they are only interested in the university association of the fraud.

Why don't you contact Dr. Crockford herself and ask her? Academic to academic

No agenda.....no narrative.......just good ole bashing calling someone a "denier" because they have different facts. Even the last sentence/paragraph of this hit job (is this another opinion piece ) states they have NO idea if polar bear population has increased (it has, at one subpop) decreased ( it has at 2 ), but the vast majority of populations of polar bears???????????????? No one knows

Of the 19 polar bear subpopulations in the Arctic Circle, three have shown substantial declines, including bears in the South Beaufort Sea off Alaska’s coast and in West Hudson Bay in Canada. One subpopulation has increased in numbers, and scientists know little or nothing about nine of the others, which are either in Russian territory or in locations so remote that resources are not available for surveys.

Reading your link, it is clear that her only significant qualification is basically that she says she is an expert. No a bit else than that.

Your professional envy of Crockford is duly noted; a glaring inability to respect women of different political stripes is sad. Thanks though!

(I'd mention that Alger Hiss is a graduate of Johnny Hop but that would be petty of me )

AFAN, if someone responds to these types of posts, is the respondee "complaining", or, are the authors of such "constructive conversation" impervious to your rants of how to perform on these threads ?
