The long-running confrontation between embattled professor Norman Finkelstein and DePaul University ended today without the dramatics he had promised.
Instead, he read a statement announcing his resignation this morning on the university's main quadrangle before about 120 supporters announcing that he and DePaul had resolved the controversy. But the terms were kept confidential.

A colorful demonstration for Finkelstein on campus this morning included representatives of the National Lawyers Guild, the Socialist Workers Party, the Revolutionary Communist League and Jewish Voice for Peace.
UPDATE 9:20 PM CST: On the DePaul web site there is a joint statement from the university and and ex-Professer Finkelstein.
