I am finding this feed/site to be quite interesting these days (esp one's on exercise and eating, though I'm doing more of the latter, as you can see here):

Interview with the prof in the Sun-Times
A couple quotes from the article:
"I was sad to be leaving my colleagues and students and an institution I valued very highly," said Hochschild, 33. "But I support in principle the right of the institution to have exclusive hiring policies. Not every institution is a liberal democracy. We both agreed that Wheaton has a right to exclude Catholics if it wants to. We both agree there are significant differences between what a Catholic believes and what a Protestant believes. Our significant difference was over whether the statement of faith was an effective way of implementing a policy of excluding Catholics."
"Faculty members at the west suburban evangelical Protestant college must sign a faith statement that the Bible is the final authority. Catholics follow the authority of Scripture and the pope."
Here is a follow-up article by Andy Jacobs, a Wheaton English prof and personal friend of Hochschild.
