Sorry the article won't copy and paste well. There is a prof at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario who is promoting the anti vaccine agenda. What I find most disturbing is this university also has med school.

I saw that. It is disturbing. I hope the school gets a terrible reputation and is forced to actually DO something with her.

I really hope she is canned ASAP as she is teaching against best practices. I don't want to the school trashed though. I know many doctors that have graduated through Queen's, and it really is a fantastic school. She is definitely a tarnish on their image though.

I feel like the only thing universities react to is the potential for a tarnished image. They don't actually care about whack jobs teaching trash... but if donors and Macleans rankings get into it, well, then they'll act.

Very true. I know a girl that is entering premed, and I would feel bad if her schooling is looked down upon due to this nutbar. Regardless, Queen's needs to weed out prof's that think it is ok to promote false information.

Ah, any kid that's in "premed" will graduate a million years after this blows over.
