BC Professor to be Censored

Anna Djintcharadze, a doctoral student and teacher in the philosophy department at Boston College, may have her published work permanently revised without her permission in order to make it more politically correct.

Djintcharadze, who recently penned two articles for the controversial Encyclopedia of Christian Civilization, could have her work amended by Blackwell Publishing even though both her and the editor-in-chief of the encyclopedia steafastly stand behind the accuracy of her articles. Accusations by some that the encyclopedia is “too Christian” sparked an immediate response from the publisher. The printing of the encyclopedia has been stopped indefinitely and the volumes in shipment have been recalled. Contributers to the encyclopedia have been asked to return their complimentary copies and the publisher has destroyed all copies of the publication in its possession.
