Gallaudet University is a big place–but apparently not big enough for two points of view. Yesterday, University President Alan Hurwitz, in a bombshell decision, announced the suspension of a senior employee for supporting traditional marriage. And not just any employee, but Dr. Angela McCaskill, a 23-year veteran who earned the schools first Ph.D. as a deaf African-American woman. “I want to inform the community that I have placed Dr. Angela McCaskill on paid administrative leave effective immediately,” Hurwitz said in a statement. “It recently came to my attention that Dr. McCaskill has participated in a legislative initiative that some feel is inappropriate for an individual serving as Chief Diversity Officer.”The initiative hes referencing is Marylands Question 6, the state referendum on same-sex “marriage.” Like 200,000 other residents, Dr. McCaskill signed the petition to put the issue before voters. In Maryland, however, the names and addresses of supporters are a matter of public record which has already led to a door-to-door campaign of intimidation by the Left. Administrators learned of McCaskills involvement when a faculty member was combing the list of petition signers and flagged her name. Now McCaskills decision–of simply engaging in the democratic process–could cost the trailblazer her career.
