A growing protest against lib profs

[moe.ron]

As always, lay off personal attacks.

We got an article in our student paper about how liberal our professors are today:

It was kind of funny, though, because they published about ten opinion articles saying our school is too liberal . . . but the front page was plastered with articles about Pell grant funding being cut and tuition hikes, etc.

I'm really glad he told me Madison is liberal. I just never knew that until his groundbreaking research. I am especially shocked and awed at the fact that some of our state's top educators donated money to a party with a strong emphasis on public education, aren't you, H?

What's wrong with Liberal Proffs? :-)

NeWho, I don't know of any die-hard liberal prof, or ones that force their opinions down our throats...all they do is make sly remarks about the current president that make us laugh.

Other than that, I've had some conservative profs as well and majority of the time, I can understand where their coming from.

This is neither opinionated, biased, or jaded



I can think of three other adjectives if you'd like . . . also, you should re-read your post for the part that's funny.

We've discussed this before on here.

Either way, professors have opinions. College kids aren't 12. One of the things you should learn how to do in college is separate fact from opinion and learn how to deal with people who have opinions opposite from you. Pressure to make everyone objective or cater to student opinion is silly because it undermines this educational objective.

Since Rudey's playing language police, I'll jump in too (just because I have a fixation with doing things more quickly than he - insert own joke here) . . .

SerioulsLY. I would be taking it too seriousLY.


Take the joke part as a joke, and then do the serious part. Seriously.

Do I need to put all my standardized test scores involving the English language in my signature just so I can help certain GC morons feel bad, given that I learned their native language after a few other languages? Because I will. Don't make me! Hold me back Rob!

Well, I was talking about other people and the English language.

But I am so happy you are able to read and comprehend even the most basic of statements.

Imagine if you had sworn over some mistake you had made! It would have been awful. Really...you should not SWEAR and take your LORD'S NAME IN VAIN. Now go to www.bonsaikitten.com and buy one to repent.
