CAUT's Academic Freedom and Tenure Committee has composed a Committee of Inquiry to investigate the Thorpe case at Mount Allison University. The committee members are Bernice Schrank from Memorial and Roger Gannon, recently retired from York. Both are former chairs of the AF&T Committee. They will look into the treatment of Professor Thorpe by the administration at Mount Allison after his retirement.
