In the Spring of 2015, a post-modern version of the Salem
witchcraft trials took place at Connecticut College on the Thames
River. Only this time instead of sorcery it was Zionism; instead of
punishing in the name of God's law it was in the name of anti-hate
speech and inclusive excellence; instead of young teenage girls
leading the hysteria it was college-aged social warriors stampeding
200 professors into sacrificing one of their colleagues, and
thereby contributing to a wave of administration-promoted
hate-speech at their college. The Pessin affair offers us a case
study in a tendency towards "public shaming" that not only deeply
compromises the integrity of academia, but increasingly spreads to
many aspects of our society, so susceptible to media-driven feeding
frenzies.
