Google cache catches DePaul's Cultural Center with some sneaky editing


Looks like Dr. Harvette Grey, head of the DePaul Cultural Center, is up to some chicanery in publicizing Ward Churchill's upcoming hate rants at DePaul next week.

It's apparent Nick Hahn, of the My Political Agenda blog was right when he made remarks about this "lockout" to Caplis and Silverman of KHOW Radio in Denver.

Dr. Harvette Grey, pictured above, is clearly trying to keep the DePaul Republicans, as well as any other Ward Churchill opponents, out of the second event.

Tuition money, including that of DePaul Republicans, is partially funding Ward Churchill's appearance fee for the DePaul events.

Does DePaul have no shame?

Oh, looking at Dr. Harvette Grey's biography, she has a Masters from Northeastern Illinois University's Center for Inner City Studies. That department, is led by Conrad Worrill, a well-known slavery reparations zealot.

That's not to say Grey supports the unpopular--outside of college campuses--idea of slavery reparations. But last week Dr. Grey's DePaul Cultural Center hosted a slavery reparations proponent, Chicago Alderman Dorothy Tillman, who spoke to DePaul students about this issue.
