A quick check of Citrus College's full-time faculty listing didn't show her; ergo, she's probably adjunct faculty. If so, she's on a year-to-year or semester-to-semester contract - much easier to just not renew her contract. Firing her mid-semester would be an adminstrative nightmare for the faculty and administration.

Not that I'd shed any tears if she was gone.

I had a similar situation, but in that case I opted to stand by my principles and took the F. Then I went to the department head and demanded that he grade my paper.

I got an A and an apology from the first professor.

They need to speak with students she's taught in the past to see whether this was an isolated incident, or whether this reflects a pattern of overt left-wing bias. If this is part of a pattern, she needs to be booted.

She won't need to be fired. She will probably leave on her own and have her choice
of Chairs at major universities for the upcoming academic year.


You must be in academia...as you've just about nailed down the most likely outcome.

So not only was the teacher using his position of influence to sway the kids he mad it mandatory to write ant bush letters or fail a required course!

Democarts always support dictatorial big governement regiems.

They gave this Prof the day off?! That's it?! They should've terminated her on the spot

If the professor was a CONSERVATIVE, advocating conservative causes through her students, she would have been fired on the spot. Of that I am certain.

This is what I e-mailed to Citrus College Mental Health Services:

"Will you be offering special counseling services for those students who have been mentally assaulted by having to submit to the political brainwashing of Professor Kahn, or else jeopardize their maximum academic standing?"

I think it's good to get a full discussion going between all who are paid by this college.

I wrote this lie about how he had convinced me about his socialist doctrine and how blind I had been. I made an A on the final.

An amazing story, Pushi. I wonder how many other A students, then and now, have to lie through their teeth. Sad state of affairs.

Thanks for setting up the link. I thought the FR software would do it for me automatically but it didn't.....but I see in the source code how you accomplished it. Thanks.

Exactly. And that's why this stuff will be happening until we treat our current "education" establishment the way the Romans treated Carthage: burn it, plow the ruins under, and salt the earth to prevent regrowth. We have to start all over again in a new way.

I work in the *mumble* Department at *cough* University,

"Cough" University? That's gotta be Duke!

(For the slow folks in the back of the room: Duke was founded by tobacco money.)

I know that the Left thinks we HATED Clinton...and perhaps some did. But I must say, they are exhibiting almost frenetic and increasing hatred against this president.

What gobbledy gook nonsense. The womyn can't even use the English language correctly and has no writing ability. I'd bet she's humorless, too. And she's teaching speech to these young skulls full of mush!?

The article of concern.

To all viewing this. A local public middle school has a social studies teacher who is trying the exact same thing.

Let's just nip this in the bud.
