“Scientific facts do not correspond to a natural reality but conform to a social construct.”
Except for Man Made Global Warming. Now THAT'S some ROCK SOLID SCIENCE!
All the rest... well that's just so much social construct HOGWASH to your good ole', down-home leftist.
But Man Made Global Warming... well that's not just SCIENCE, you understand, that's ANTI-CAPITALISM, and that makes it CORRECT BY DEFINITION.

Does it create a “hostile environment” to “question authority”?

There are also several books available linking the eating of meat to the oppression of women.

Or countersue for ‘educational malpractice’ or ‘fraud’...

Ms. Venkatesan informed her pupils that their behavior was “fascist demagoguery.”
There we have it, people! Now we know how to get rid of ultraliberal professors — become Fascist demagogues.
I’m game. You?

If I were the students, I’d sue my parents for sending me to a hugely overrated, radical Leftist, Ivy League hellhole.

I’ve had my share of loser professors over the last 20+ years of “higher learning” . . . but this woman would take the prize of Loser Number One!

I recall Larry Summers’ leaving but don’t remember what he said that was so troublesome.

If she were talking about global warming, I’d agree with her.

Time for the parents to sue the Ivies for the outrageous tuitions they are charging for this type of faux intellectualism. And I admire the caliber of students in the Dartmouth freshman class. Most kids just roll their eyes and hunker down for the duration. Bravo!

Shouldn’t she be teaching the Pakastan language?
To: Mongeaux
I’m on your side, Mongeaux. By “you” I meant “you all.”
To get rid of liberal professors, what conservative wouldn’t want to wear the mantle of “Fascist demogogue,” if only for one class. I’m already considered a barbarian, a Neanderthal, and a global warming denier, so how is “Fascist demogogue” going to hurt me?

She said (exact quote) : "I don't have to take this!" and walked out of a classroom of 30 people. "Facts" are a patriarchal construct, so it was sexist of you to spoil her brilliant analysis with such underhanded tactics. ;)

I had to do a bluebook a long time ago in Lit and one of the things I had to ‘analyze’ was a “brown study”; having not read the book, I filled many pages analyzing the construction of what was obviously B.S. from the back end of a horse but got a B anyway for ‘creativity’.
