Larry Summers calls on university presidents to defend academic freedom
In an 8/28/22 tweet about Quillette article The Fall of Nature: A once-respected journal has announced that it will be subordinating science to ideology, Summers writes: “I hope that university presidents will defend academic freedom by echoing these sentiments. Leading journals like @Nature gatekeep tenure for young scholars and publications in them can determine career paths for older scholars…This kind of politicization is very dangerous.”
