Man, these folks have to much time on their hands! They just sit around coming up with new ways to grift.

LOL, I worked with a great black teacher once who transferred into our school (0% black) - he’d come from a black school and said every time there was a fight, which was every single day, an administrator would come and get him to “talk” to the miscreants involved as a “strong black man” - he absolutely hated this task and ended up transferring out. Even after he transferred, his old school continued to call, wanting his help with problem students. He finally blocked their number - said his blood pressure and mental health improved 100% that first year.

Republicans are doing a poor job convincing Americans of the dangers of Marxism. Some of them even try to score points by using Marxist terms like “working class”. They talk like they don’t really belive in the freedom that made America great.

How about the very real taxes I pay to support useless, failed and sh*tty cultures ?

If they want credit for tenure then perhaps write a book on the daily grind of dealing with hoodlums. A published book can enhance a tenure prospect.

Maybe I’m hopelessly old fashioned, but I thought ALL teachers were supposed to be role models and mentors for ALL students.

So what are the DEI grifters arguing here? That it is uniquely and unfairly difficult for certain kinds of teachers to perform tasks that are inherent requirements of their jobs?

That would mean they are unsuited to their jobs. Which is what rational people will conclude.

So token affirmative action diversity hires are complaining that the reason why they have substandard professional credentials and poor work histories is because it’s such an overwhelming burden being a token affirmative action diversity hire?

The argument is that minority faculty members are so overwhelmed by the “cultural taxation” they experience that they neglect their research and teaching duties, which in turn makes their academic advancement very difficult. They need additional compensation for that supposed burden. The suggestion is that they should get credit towards tenure or advancing in the professorship ranks for the time spent working with “underrepresented” students.

It would be cheaper for everyone and easier if black high school dropouts were placed in elites colleges and universities and given the power, money and prestige of full professorships (with tenure) Why force 'people of color' to spend 6 or 8 years in college pretending to be educated? Let them start at the top pretending to be professors. (of course this is a total insult to black citizen who earned the right to teach University students and who proved themselves worthy of tenure... but hey those folks are the enemy of DEI anyhow.. so insult away)
