Some 170 professors at Southern Methodist University have signed a petition asking for a full-faculty vote on whether it would be acceptable for the campus to be the site of a partisan Bush Institute, faculty leaders announced on Thursday. The institute would be part of a proposed George W. Bush Presidential Library complex, for which Southern Methodist is the final contender as host institution.
