What happened to Collings after he wrote his book "Random Designer"?
... Well, it ain't pretty and I am surprised that the DI is not
standing up to support Collings

Anger over his work had been building for two years. When classes
resumed in late August, things finally came to a head. Colling is
prohibited from teaching the general biology class, a version of which
he had taught since 1991, and college president John Bowling has
banned professors from assigning his book. At least one local Nazarene
church called for Colling to be fired and threatened to withhold
financial support from the college. In a letter to Bowling, ministers
in Caro, Mo., expressed "deep concern regarding the teaching of
evolutionary theory as a scientifically proven fact," calling it "a
philosophy that is godless, contrary to scripture and scientifically
unverifiable."

Of course, this case may not be politically expedient. Too bad.
