Take a gander at this SJWs bio page: https://education.illinois.edu/faculty/rg1
A pretty lady. It’s a shame that she hates truth.
Look at all the free money she was given in her affirmative action/SJW dominated academic life:

She’s gotten about 1.2 million in grants!
In other words, she’s a professional grifter.
Adding up government grants to black people—that’s real racist math! :-(
College of Education. Enough said.
So to teach mathematics in a public school, working knowledge of mathematics is no longer necessary. One must have a degree from a “college of education”, which pushes cultural Marxism rather than working knowledge of the appropriate subject matter. If someone does in fact have working knowledge of the subject matter (a real degree in math, science, engineering, or even history), that candidate would be shut out, since only a “teaching degree” is acceptable, and anything further is to the detriment of the applicant.
Thank you, teachers unions (I didn’t really mean thank you, but y’all knew that, and what I really meant).
