The fact that crop rotations were not being used in America and he was able to implement their widespread use successfully deserves some credit. I wanted to acknowledge you're two-thirds right about George Washington Carver and crop rotation.

I will concede this to you, if you can espouse your views, then this professor, in an upper level lecture, should have freedom to discuss her doubts. That is my whole problem with this. It was an upper level situation. I went to many "lectures" when I was in college. Some of the presenters did some off the wall stuff, but I would never imagine asking for them to lose their positions. On top of that, nowhere does it say this professor insisted that the students espouse her views, it was a discussion.
