USM prof: ‘Anti-gay’ Chick-fil-A needs to be removed from campus
Campus Reform ^

Posted on 08/03/2012 10:23:06 AM PDT by oliverdarcy

A University of Southern Mississippi (USM) professor is demanding the faculty Senate reevaluate the university’s support for "organizations that are anti-gay" including the popular fast-food chain Chick-fil-A.

"We have a nondiscrimination policy at USM that includes sexual orientation and so if we have that policy, I think to live up to that, then we should not be doing anything to support organizations that are anti-gay," associate political science Professor Kate Greene told local NBC affiliate WDAM Channel 3, regarding the Chick-fil-A controversy.

Greene, whose website says she is the “second most senior member” of the political science department, has also requested the issue be taken up by the faculty Senate, the Jackson, Ms., Clarion Ledger, reported on Wednesday.

A spokesperson for USM, however, told Campus Reform on Thursday that the University currently has no plans to remove Chick-fil-A from its campus and that the faculty Senate does not in fact hold jurisdiction over which vendors are allowed on campus.

“Teaching Areas:

Guess that explains why I never heard of her during my time at USM.

Being anti gay marriage isn't necessarily the same as being anti gay.

Somebody tell the brainiac professor to prove his allegation that Chik-fil-A discriminates.

And two can play at this game.

The alumni can makes calls about withholding big donations if they throw Chick-fil-a off the campus.

nondiscrimination policy


I think it is time that the left drops the “NON” from their discrimination policies.

It is obvious it does not mean what they think it means.

The left are entirely happy to live in a world where white men can be discriminated against, or where conservatives can be discriminated against or Christians can be discriminated against. So these policies are not what the claim.

Universities, Newsroom, Hollywood, all discriminate, all the time.

This is what the Muslims do to gays. Liberals are apparently OK with it, but no chicken sandwiches at the gay reception is intolerable.

Intolerant incompetent closet Fascist Profs who want to stifle all opinions that differ from their own need to be fired by the U of Ms. Alumni should be contacting the University and letting them know they will not see 1 more dime in donations if they act in this sort of Fascistic fashion

She probably teaches the same curriculum as Obama did. Equally worthless.

Support the Separation of Restaurant and (Thought Police) State.

exactly go deface a mosque, go and throw out the muslim groups on campus, go ater muslim businesses until then I look at this as an agenda against Christians or even people like me which don’t go to church but do say a prayer and look at their agenda as sick, perverted and certainly not natural.

We can reproduce they cannot , why is that?

mmmm funny how they never answer that.

Notice the big coffee stain on the front of her sweater.

One step is to remove all Federal funding from education.

And of course guillotine (figuratively speaking of course) the entire Dept. of Education, and about 90% of all other fedgov agencies, bureaus and departments. The bitter fruit will wither without the water of money and thus enforcement of insane leftist hell-crap.
