Who Is This Mystery Professor? She Threatened Violence If Williams College Adopted the Chicago Principles

WILLIAMSTOWN, MA - Williams College biology professor Luana Maroja saw her colleagues behaving badly at a meeting meant to discuss bringing the Chicago free speech principles to campus on November 15, 2018. She wrote about her alarming experience that day in "Freedom of Speech at Williams College: Art the Walls Closing In," an article which first appeared in Jerry Coyne's blog, "Why Evolution is True" on November 29, 2018. Maroja wrote:

While most professors at the meeting were highly supportive of free speech and many sent me grateful emails, I was shocked at the behavior of some of my colleagues. For example, one professor turned to the students and said that they should read the names missing from our list of signatories, as “those were professors that were with the students” (an appalling tactic that created an “us vs them” atmosphere).

Even more appalling than this divisiveness was a threat of actual Antifa-style violence. "Another professor," Maroja said, "stated that she was involved in creating violence in UC Berkeley for Milo Yiannopoulos’s disinvitation and would be ready to do the same at Williams."

Here's my quesiton. Does anyone know the name of that professor?

I'm assuming a lot of people know exactly who Luana Maroja is talking about. There were a number of professors at this meeting and a number of students as well. Maroja, so far, has declined to name the mystery professor. Nevertheless, we do have some interesting clues.

Obviously, we know the suspect is most likely a woman and we can guess that this woman was most likely someone who was at UC Berkeley around January, 2017. Although I'm not an FBI profiler, I think it is reasonable to assume that the mystery professor is someone who is still fairly young, someone who has a grudge, who has poor impulse control, and perhaps has a history of aggressive campus activism. All in all, it is hard to imagine we are talking about an older person when we think about running along with the Antifa crowd.

If you know the name of the mystery professor for sure, then please call me at 949-338-5921 or send an email to johndrew25@msn.com.

I'd be happy to do some research about them. What disturbs me the most about this professor is that her willingness to engage in violence is potentially dangerous to students and other faculty members. Secondarily, I'm concerned that the sight of a Williams College professor willing to threaten violence to stop free speech sets a bad example for student activists and may, in fact, have encouraged the ugly behavior we was during the last school year, particularly the bigoted, anti-white tirade which disrupted the College Council meeting on April 9, 2019.
