They’re getting tough on these professors because the administrations are afraid that their schools will go the way of Evergreen State College.
I imagine she’ll get a nice cushy position at UC Berkeley or maybe UC Santa Cruz for the fall semester. I’m sure most of the faculty and a good portion of the students in those fine institutions agree with her.
Is PCWORLD finally on the ropes?
Good. Any word on that ‘professor’ from Trinity University in Conecticut who wrote an article about conservatives entitled’
“Let Them F*ckin’ Die!”?
I hate AUTOINCORRECT...should have been “Is PC finally...”
The tenure system for professors needs to fixed or eliminated. They become unaccountable. A law unto themselves. What other profession gets that?
The Trump administration should eliminate federal funding for any college/university that won’t eliminate tenure.
Well, I guess there are occasional flickers of sanity in the academic world, but not all that often.
she was an adjunct. pretty stupid move on her part.
Good...................
She was an adjunct professor.
There is not much security in that position.
She was supposedly fired, but I have my doubts.
If she actually is fired, she'll be picked up by some other college. Her ethnicity alone practically guarantees it.
Melissa Click, the Harridan of Mizzou, got canned and then picked up by Gonzaga University almost immediately.
Good. Great to see some of these extremists being held accountable.
Katherine Nitwitler sure to be hired at any number of far left campuses. How dare anyone cross her mentor Kim Jong Un.
She has a passport to a high-paying job. Plus, America-haters are in high demand at colleges nowadays.
Professor?
She looks like a lesbian with mental issues.
I read something concerning the University of Missouri not long ago. Remember all the PC bs going on there a few years ago? Their freshmen applications dropped by about 20%. That’s a lot of money.
Being PC all the time can cost colleges and universities. If I had children, I wouldn’t have sent them into that whacked out lib environment.
Normal liberal rhetoric. Nothing to see here.
“They become unaccountable. A law unto themselves. What other profession gets that?”
I know of one! The United States Congress!!! /s;)
