Emory University bans Professor from using name on blog: part 2, hiding the truth and corruption

Emory University banned blog author, and University Professor of Psychiatry and Radiology, Doug Bremner from using the name of his University on his blog or face consequences. -soulful sepulcher blog

It seems this news of the double standard Emory University imposed upon Doug Bremner is the talk of the blogosphere.

More blogs discussing the story, and it doesn't favor Emory University's reputation for hiding corruption and people such as Charles Nemeroff under the rug.

A Blogger that dare not use his University name

"It appears that faculty members, even senior faculty at Emory who make comments "that may be of concern" to an Assistant Vice President for Health Sciences, and Director, Media Relations, are not supposed to identify themselves as Emory faculty. This is the sort of policy one might expect from certain corporations. But Emory is a university. It proclaims it:

.."is an inquiry-driven, ethically engaged and diverse community whose members work collaboratively for positive transformation in the world through courageous leadership in teaching, research, scholarship, health care and social action."


It proclaims its strategic plan is entitled:


"Where Courageous Inquiry Leads"


We can see where courageous inquiry leads at Emory. It leads to University executives attempting to censor faculty blogs when they included "concerning" remarks."-Roy Poses, M.D.
