The University of South Florida contacted Bill Donohue today about the incident involving Dr. Timothy Weil. Weil had compared priests to feces at a recent academic forum; to read the background about this issue, click\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Donohue received a letter from Dr. Julianne Serovich, Dean and Professor, College of Behavioral & Community Sciences, wherein she stated that Weil received a \u201cLetter of Counsel.\u201d She also said he would be issuing an apology. Donohue had not sought his removal; rather, he asked for a reprimand.<\/p>\n

Here is Donohue\u2019s response:<\/p>\n

Dear Dr. Serovich:<\/p>\n
