The Des Moines Register: ISU prof loses intelligent design fight
The Iowa Board of Regents today denied an appeal by Iowa State Professor Guillermo Gonzalez, an intelligent design supporter who has lost a bid for academic tenure.
Tenure is essentially a lifetime appointment at a university.
Gonzalez, an assistant professor in physics and astronomy, has supported intelligent design, which disputes parts of the theory of evolution.
He maintains that he lost a bid for tenure because of his support for the idea.
