The University of Illinois’s Board of Trustees voted on Thursday to deny the appointment of Steven G. Salaita to a professorship on the Urbana-Champaign campus, in the latest chapter of a month-old saga that has inflamed academe.

I am concerned about how the Salaita family will make ends meet while the lawsuit works its way through the court system. Is there a donation webpage set up?

There was a paypal here but it now says it’s paused while they set up another system. http://supportstevensalaita.com/
