Vanderbilt Professor Facing Protests Tells Students to ‘Grow Up’
Daily Signal ^ | November 13, 2015 | Kelsey Harkness

A black conservative professor who found herself the latest target of student protests nationwide has one thing to say to those calling for her to be suspended from the university where she teachers: 'Grow up.'

Swain said the students behind the protests never took any of her classes, all of which are elective.

'My classes are elective, so no one has to take any of my classes and no one has to go to my blog page or go to my Facebook,' she said. 'I feel that I have been defamed by the students and the petition has been filled with lies and they ought to be held accountable for what they've done.'

Good for her.

But she is now going to feel the wrath of the leftist.

It will be good if Vanderbilt stands up for her.

We will see.

Obviously, the woman is a racist. (extreme sarcasm). I am sure Vanderbilt has her back (once again, extreme sarcasm).

They’re college age. It’s obvious that they never intend to grow up. Mommy and Daddy BigBucks would kick them out if they did.

Until there is a boycott of schools exhibiting this craziness, nothing is going to change.

She cannot possibly be a religious black?

And what the hell is LGBTQIA? Is that a boggle thing?

The Obamatollah FEARS black Christians most of all. He fears their relationship with God and their influence. He probably hates black Christians more than the “white european crusaders.”

Carol Swain is a solid sound Conservative.

I've heard her speak live twice and she is very anti-Obozo and all that he stands for.

Vanderbilt is still smarting from the BIG rape trial of three football players which ended up in an overturned guilty verdict with a new trial yet to be scheduled.

Here is the core of the problem: Idiots In Charge

Vanderbuilt President:

“Vanderbilt University is committed to diversity, inclusion, and freedom from discrimination. Ensuring that our campus is a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment for every member of the Vanderbilt community has been, and will always be, our top priority.”

Shouldn’t the top priority be educating the students?

Especially since it costs them (or someone) about $63,000 a year to attend as a full time undergraduate student.

Dr. Swain is very conservative and a Christian. I follow her on FB. Her life story would be heralded by the media for success if she were not conservative.

Most of her attackers are young white liberals.

She should sue them. That’ll make them grow up real fast.
