What this Georgetown prof writes is bunk.

I see, so were their comments lies? Were they fabricated? Are they racist? Or as you seem to suggest, are they just failures at teaching?

And if they are failures at teaching, why did the white folks do significantly better? Why weren't they at the bottom of the class as well?

Once again, could you respond to my questions about this story? Your response was wordy, disjointed and had little to to do with your claim about these people.

I am specifically interested in your response to my last question above.

dragnet2, OK I can distill: These educators do a lousy job. They are lazy, entrenched, self-indulgent in choosing subject matter and pedagogy, and more.

They need to know their students’ names, just for example; and yes it takes more work to learn their black students’ names. Just do it.

It takes more work in general to meet the needs of students who are not mainstream white. And these professors’ reluctance to put in the work matters. If this prof does not like it that some students end up at the bottom, she could take basic measures to improve her own performance that would go a long way to remediate the very thing that upsets her so. Instead she whines.

The term “racist” has lost nearly all of its meaning. I prefer the terms “pathetic” and “good for nothing.”
