I think professors should stick to the text books. Less trouble that way. I certainly wouldn’t speak about that topic they were regardless if the students Wanted it or not and most certainly if I still wasn’t tenure. Probably a good thing to get rid of this professor. Doesn’t have a bit of common sense anyway.
You certainly sound the extremist. It is not “common sense” to yield to ever tightening shackles on discourse in good faith.
I might agree in a wry way — that it’s probably a good thing for the professor to be rid of that school.
And as a way of “what goes around comes around” for that school to be rid of the professor — they don’t deserve her benefit.
Maybe tenure would have trapped her into a devil’s “gentleman’s agreement” that would have prospered nobody.
But when the text books themselves become tightening nooses around discourse, what is the moral and ethical option?
The books are tools. But as the bible says, shall the axe boast against the one who wields it?
There is no escape along the lines you propose.
Were you drunk when you wrote that. or are you always so confused?
