so if you “work” really hard to get the wrong answer, that counts more than if you are a better learner and have better study habits and can get the right answer through less struggle/work...
I’d like to apply for my heart surgeon job now and i’ll take that 300 grand a year, please...
I will work really, really hard -
Because the right answer doesn’t matter anymore...
I can carve up a patient like a turkey but I worked really really hard, so it’s all good.
The biggest enemy to liberals is truth (aka the real world)
Why not fill his class with students from special needs? They’ll put in the effort.
Wait until students don’t put any “labor” into the work.
Just print out the damn diplomas and give them to all freshmen. This idiot sounds like someone terrified of the work involved in reading and grading assignments, so he invents a reason to pass them all. Of course, once his gibberish-based standard becomes permanent, those white students...well, kiss them goodbye.
Great use that on Road tests too:-)
College graduates primarily communicate through writing. If they write like they’re ignorant, that’s exactly how they’re going to be seen regardless of how well they may be dressed and/or speak.
I’ve seen this problem before even though it was cloaked in a white skin. I won’t go into details, but he was a college graduate who wrote like a seventh grader; a poorly educated seventh grader, I might add. He could barely write cursive with a pen and what he did write was incoherent. And his deficiencies were not for lack of resources or opportunity as I knew and had served under his father, a senior field grade officer. Our company finally had to let him go. He simply could not perform the tasks expected of a junior analyst.
So, our brilliant professor of rhetoric at ASU is going to deliver minority students who are not experts in writing standard American college-level English into the competitive meat grinder of the professional workforce.
Bravo, professor! Bravo for creating another embittered generation of minority college graduates who cannot figure out why everyone is against them dispute all their “A” for effort grades. The bigotry of low expectations strikes again.
That is our govt, activity vs results.
Other than teaching at a ‘woke’ educational institution, how much of a salary can one get on the open market with a “Rhetoric & Composition” degree ... ? It sounds about as worthless as a ‘studies’ program.

When I was teaching English 101 at a Texas University around 2000-2002 I had a department head who believed that we should allow students to use Ebonics vernacular English to give Black students equal grading.. No such leeway was given to Hispanic students or for that matter any students for whom English was a second language.
I just followed orders and gave them “A” since I had no frame of reference to determine if the student was using the proper syntax, spelling and grammar of the Ebonics vernacular. I suppose this was affirmative action in action.
