JOHN PILGER, who as I noted below is rooting for the terrorists in Iraq (go here and scroll down to see what, exactly, he's approving) is also a professor at Cornell:

The Rhodes Class of '56 University Professorships, designed to enrich the undergraduate experience at the university, are awarded for a period of one to five years, and appointees are considered full members of the Cornell faculty. During each year of their appointment, Rhodes professors will visit the campus for a minimum of two weeks.

Cynthia McKinney is another holder of this formerly-prestigious appointment.

UPDATE: The selection process is under review, as well it should be. More here.
