Latino students were described as “mediocre” and “pretty bad” in an email that was accidentally sent by a professor to students registering for a mock trial class at the University of Maryland.
Mark Graber sent the missive Thursday to students in the class, inadvertently including remarks from Abigail Graber, identified by the Diamondback student newspaper as his daughter and a lawyer who volunteered as an assistant coach for the team. The university then asked the two to resign, which they did, according to an email sent to students.
When asked to comment Friday evening, Mark Graber wrote in an email to The Washington Post: “Regrets, other than to note responsibility is entirely mine.” He declined an interview request because he considered “the incident closed.”
In the email to students, Abigail Graber wrote that she had a question about diversity. While lamenting that they had “almost no Latino students on team,” she proceeded to say that the Latino students were not very qualified for the class.
“If I were to rank purely on performance, I would probably only take 1 of them. Should I take 2? All three? None have mock trial experience,” Abigail Graber wrote. “The mediocre one is extremely involved in community activism/organizing (she’s the one I would probably take no matter what, what she lacks in skill she makes up in confidence, although she may be too busy for this commitment).”

You cannot flunk a Latina. You can see the sad results in the TV interviews conducted after the DACA decision yesterday.
Yup, one cannot give honest observations.
Let’s keep those quotas going.
After all, if Dorkbama the Muslim eunuch can become a lawyer, ANYONE can.
Something tells me the law profession standards are right down there with education and journalism.
Welcome to Lake Snowflake, where everyone is above average.
I saw nothing bad. That is how teachers talk to each other.
Too bad this became public information, but it’s not horrible. Horrible would have been catching someone using a racial slur or issuing very broad, very negative generalizations.
OOPS, a little truth about “Affirmative Action” leaks out and the Libturds kill the messenger.
Makes me wonder about the “Wise latina” sitting on SCOTUS.
They must be pandered to, tolerated, excused and glorified while they "dis" (usually don't know the whole word) the adults.
Often a single minority in an all-white class can disrupt the education of all.
I wouldn't so I retired.
You mean like "All y'all White peoples is racist!"?
The truth is no excuse.
Exactly. First person who uses the verb ‘Woke’ ungrammatically, loses the argument.
Beat me to it...
Wonder what? She's stupid, she's a Marxist, and she's probably a dyke.
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
“Makes me wonder about the “Wise latina” sitting on SCOTUS.”
There are many wise Latinas out there.
But none are to be found on the Supreme Court.
Yes - of course you should take all three.
They're Hispanic/Black/Muslim/Alien, you see? To not take them even at the expense of a better qualified person is racist and bigoted. Now go home and commit physical suicide even as you have already committed professional suicide by even asking the question. Begone!
Facts are racist.
