To the Editor:
Dr. Jennifer Ruth provides your readers with one big lie and several mispresentations in her essay “When Academic Bullies Claim the Mantle of Free Speech” (The Chronicle Review, March 18). First, the lie: Neither I nor professor Peter Boghossian used Twitter “to encourage students to post material” on the Internet as she claims. In one instance, we merely retweeted a set of class slides already posted by a student, as did hundreds of others concerned about the abusive and unprofessional content of the slides.
We’re sorry. Something went wrong.
