The remark that Professor Berthold made about the attack on the Pentagon was out of line and insensitive, but that doesn't change the fact that he is still one of the best professors this University has to offer.
Regarding the incident with Dr. Berthold, freedom of speech has once again been brought into the spotlight. Many of us, if not all, understand the importance of the right to free speech, but what is free speech?
In response to numerous inquiries as to how the University will deal with the remark made one of its professors about the tragic events of Sept. 11, I want people to know that the University will vigorously pursue this matter through its internal disciplinary procedures.
Tuesday proved to be a very sad day for UNM, with several students and community leaders calling for the resignation of Professor Richard Berthold and the Faculty Senate and administration distancing themselves from the matter.
Truth be told, only a good show will have the audience wanting to sing along during the opening number. The Albuquerque Little Theatre's production of "100 Years of Broadway, 66 years off Central" does just that.
I agree that Professor Berthold has a guaranteed First Amendment right to free speech but, I believe that he has forgotten that with our rights come responsibilities. I do not believe that the classroom while performing his obligations to UNM was an appropriate setting for such a statement. I feel that he has forgotten that his employer has the right to require a level of professionalism and conduct and that he agreed to abide by these rules when he accepted his position.
Andrew Lewis, a writer for the Ayn Rand Objectivist Institute, says the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks resulted from the United States' moral failure to fight terrorism that began nearly a century ago.

Who is tired of paying for an education and getting left or right wing propaganda?
UNM is like most universities, it fills the minds of students and faculty with fantasy misinformation that numbs us to reality. Everything around us becomes a statistic and desensitizes us to the fact that people - mothers, fathers, partners, lovers, children and unborn babies - of all ethnicities and religions died in the World Trade Center, Pentagon and Pennsylvania attacks.
Anti-war protests, loud-mouthed professors, bullying legislators, and confused students. This is not a flashback to your father's or mother's 1960s, but the reality of campus life in 2001.
Regardless of all the controversy surrounding history professor Richard M. Berthold's backing of the recent terrorist bombing, he taught quite possibly the best less of his 30 years. The real reason why the University and community is outraged is in response to Berthold showing that even a professor of 30 years is still human and still searching for answers.
