Academics demand public service award be taken away from Condi RiceNumerous political scientists have signed on to a petition urging the American Political Science Association to rescind an award given to former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.The former secretary of state, currently a professor at Stanford University, was recently granted the Hubert H. Humphrey Award for public service.
