Lloro-Bidart, an associate professor of liberal studies at Cal Poly

You guys may be on to something. Was wondering which CalPoly the professor allegedly teaches at. Have never seen that omitted before. And then there is the vague "liberal studies" which by itself should have been a red flag.

I tried to look her up, but almost every link to her is broken.

The Cal Poly associated with Prof Lloro-Bidart is
definitely not the same Cal Poly highly regarded by
publications such as FORBES and US News and World Report.
That Cal Poly is located in San Luis Obispo. The workplace
of Lloro-Bidart is in Pomona and is an off-shoot of
Cal Poly SLOtown and, unfortunately, was not required to
totally change its’ name when it gained complete
independence from SLO in the 1960s.

Many Southern Californians (FReepers excepted)
don’t realize that there is anything outside of their
world so they don’t know that another Cal Poly
exists beyond Pomona.
