==ACTA and The Ward Churchill Case==
Former ACTA President [[Ann Neal]] was interviewed regarding the views of that organization as to whether a violation of free speech had occurred in the case of [[Ward Churchill]], a [[University of Colorado]] professor of Ethnic Studies accused of academic misconduct and classroom activism. She confirmed that the Churchill affair was only part of a larger problematic trend of political extremism and pseudo-academic scholarship at universities around the country.<ref>Interview with ACTA President Ann Neal, 2007.
