Ooops fogot my comments...
Sorry to hear prayer is a no - no at your school here in the USA, the country where freedom and diversity are brought up daily. Well except in cases where some in power fear the strength in others beliefs. Don’t worry I and others will pray for you and hope that you will eventually come to your sense.
The “new direction” Amerika.
Derek Piazza is not only an anti-Christian bigot, but also has no sense of compassion for his fellow professor who was not only ill but welcomed his students in praying for him.
If you don’t like to to hear a prayer for a sick colleague, then do what Timothy Leary told the counterculter to do: “Tune Out.”
Freedom of religion is just like freedom of speech. You have a right to speak but you don’t have a right to be heard. “Professor” Piazza, just ignore them praying.....Just like how I ignore secular progressives like you who spue out liberal garbage.
The professor behind the expulsion:
Derek Piazza
Apparel Design and Merchandising Instructor
School/Location: Alameda
Phone: (510) 748-2255
Yep, he designs women’s clothes.

Screw the school. My advice: tell them to transfer, save the legal fees and let them be martyrs at the altar of militant atheism. Go to a new school where they might be accepted. Sounds like the college doesn’t deserve kids with the common decency to pray for someone under misfortune to begin with.
California is so weird.
Wouldn’t you just love to beat old Derek until he’s calling on God. Sorta’ like they did Cool Hand Luke.
Horrible. I truly fear for this country when I hear about this.
An instructor is about 4 faculty grades down from professor.
This ought to teach those kids that they should be following a 'Religion Of Peace'. If they had, they not only would have been allowed to pray but would have been given their own room for the purpose.
Do I really need to add /sarc here?
LAter pingout if you don’t get to it...
Was this a Christian prayer -- I suspect the good professor would have said nothing had it been a prayer to Allah in Arabic.
Just my opinion of course.
How thweet.

Just what we need, a fag designing our clothes. No wonder women look so awful in the ‘new’ fashions. Designed by a man who hates women.
Well, most people can’t homeschool college, but this is of interest to those who will be going to college after high school, so.....

That wasn’t sarcasm. It probably would happen for real.
I wondered about that, myself.
It’s worth noting that the college system strongly influences the K-12 public school cirriculum.
