"Whither the Looniversity?" is the official podcast of The Peerless Review. It is an ongoing discussion about the woke culture of the modern university and other challenges facing higher education. Hosted by Adam Ellwanger, a professor of rhetoric at the University of Houston - Downtown, the show features professors, administrators, and students who have unique ideas about how to restore intellectual culture -- whether inside institutional settings or out of them. Each episode focuses on the same 3 questions, asked of every guest (in addition to other questions): 1) How did the decline of the American university occur? 2) Can the American university be rehabilitated? 3) If it can be rehabilitated, how? If it cannot be rehabilitated, then what is to be done?
S2 E4 - Prof. Judith Curry
Dr. Judith Curry has been at the forefront of the scientific debate about global climate change for decades. After serving as Chair of Georgia Tech's School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, she switched her status to Professor Emerita, citing an "anti-skeptic bias" in academic science. In addition to serving on NASA's Advisory Council on Earth Science, her most recent work has been as President of the Climate Forecast Applications Network. We discuss the ideological infection of the scientific community, the catastrophe unfolding in our universities, and the many ways that climate scientists, the media, the state, and NGOs exaggerate the threat of man-made climate change.
