My sympathies are with the Massey College professor.  For all the reasons he cites. However, perhaps he should take comfort in the following: 
1. He knows why he lost his title.
2. He didn't lose his job (he resigned, as is his right.)
3. There was no "campaign"--just knee-jerk reaction for a number of reasons (including ignorance, fear of financial loss, political correctness.)
4. No change in employment conditions

A few years ago fellow on a college teaching staff didn't just lose his title.  He lost his JOB. President's decision. He got the word by TELEPHONE; no due process (he never learned the nature of the accusations); no opportunity to state his case. 

Anxious to be reinstated, the fellow agreed to enrol in college-mandated courses to improve his teaching style and approach. Was reinstated. College then requested he rewrite his course to fit a new and totally different student profile. He agreed, but his request for compensation was denied. He refused.

The fellow was me.
