Jim Henwood, a former police officer for over 30 years, joins the Dom Giordano Program to discuss why he and many alumni have bonded together to withhold their donations from St. Joseph’s University. Henwood explains that this all began after the firing of Gregory Manco, an assistant math professor and assistant baseball coach, after he retweeted posts anonymously that spoke against reparations for slavery, and race and bias training. In a letter written to university leaders at an alumni luncheon, Henwood and six other wrote of “the creeping illness that seems to be taking over the college where we learned important Jesuit values of being men for others.” Henwood openly refers to the university moving in a direction toward ‘wokeism,’ and explains why that as an issue for him and others, and tells why he and the other alumni are against the overbearing nature of such a movement. Also, Henwood tells what he’d like to see from the University to remediate the situation involving Mr. Manco. (Photo by Getty Images)
