WILMINGTON, NC- Mike S. Adams, associate professor of criminal justice at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, has been hired as a permanent columnist for the Heritage Foundation’s Web site, www.TownHall.com. His columns will appear weekly, generally on Mondays, and will be reprinted by various papers and Web sites. The column will run alongside other authors such as William F. Buckley Jr., Ann Coulter, Walter Williams and George Will.

Adams began writing a guest column for the Heritage Foundation in May following a satire he wrote on affirmative action. His column attracted the attention of Rush Limbaugh, The National Review and Fox News’ Bill O’ Reilly before Town Hall contacted him to write occasional editorials. Since then, many of his columns have been ranked in their list of top ten columns.

Adams’ columns have focused on political correctness and diversity in higher education. His first book with Harbor House will be published in April 2004.
