Emory University bans Professor from using name on blog: part 5, Emory backtracks, blog on Bremner!

What a sweet victory! I would like to assume public pressure caused some common sense, rather than PR protection, for the officials at Emory University. The University, as written about here, at Amy Philo's blog recoiled their position of the use of Emory University name on Doug Bremner's blog.

It was a little overboard and in our face that Emory allowed Charles Nemeroff to remain tenured and paid, after pocketing all of those unreported pharma-funds, and yet smacked down Bremner for blogging, come on, give me a break that was going to give the University a bad rap sheet?

As if Nemeroff and Stowe haven't? Attention from the media with an internal investigation from a seated Senator wasn't negative?

Emory University, I have been writing about your pal Charles Nemeroff and his corrupt and lack of ethics long before you were forced by Grassley's investigation to "tighten ethics" and make up new rules for faculty and staff not to receive industry gifts. Why not make Nemeroff pay something back to the community?

Click here to read the official Emory letters to Bremner, from April 2009 through July 10,2009.

Cheers, Doug!

AN OLD EMORY SONG

Emory, Emory, thy future we foretell.
We were raised on Coca-Cola, so no wonder we raise hell.
When e’er we meet Tech’s engineers,
we drink them off their stool.
So fill your cup, here’s to the luck of the Coca-Cola School.


*Of course, I hope he doesn't add the name back to his blog, they can take that letter and...just my opinion.
