From Ilya Nemenman: Theoretical Biophysics @ Emory

A while back, my colleagues and I co-wrote a letter to Emory Wheel, local student newspaper, regarding the upcoming commencement speech by Ben Carson at Emory. This stirred some controversy:

  • The letter itself can be found here.
  • The newspaper web site has some responses as well from other Emory community members.
  • Broader responses can be found here, here, here, here, and here.
  • If anybody cares, I would be happy to explain why much of what these responses say is factually wrong and signifies that their authors didn't even read our letter beyond the title (which was not even written by us).
