BOULDER, Colo. (AP) ― University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill has filed a six page response to a faculty committee's findings that the professor plagiarized and embellished facts to bolster his arguments.

The committee will review what Churchill calls the "Summary of Fallacies in the University of Colorado Investigative Committee Report".

The provost and dean will review the response as well. CU's chancellor has the final say on what should happen to Churchill.

The CU report said Churchill repeatedly fabricated his research, plagiarized others' work and strayed from the basic scholarship. Four of the five members of the investigative panel said Churchill should be suspended without pay, though one said he should be fired.

University officials said they expect to decide his fate by June 8. Churchill's attorney has vowed to sue the school if he is fired.
