When this was first exposed in the news, I contacted Brevard Community College and they assured me that they do not allow this type of behavior and that they would get to the bottom of this. It appears they are doing the right thing.
Later on tonight, IF I remember, I will post a cut & paste of their response to my query.
It reads that they have recommended the firing of this teacher. She is tenured so we will see. All the same it appears that the college has at least come to the correct conclusion here and should get credit for that.
The brazenness of this teacher is astounding. I've heard conservative teachers and professors talk about how inhospitable it is in academia if you are anything but a full blown liberal. They hide their true ideology from the staff because they have seen how they destroy anyone who dares to veer from toeing the liberal line.
So if this teacher is that brazen, then the stories from these conservative teachers and professors seem to be all the more valid.
Being liberal is the norm, but being stupid enough to document your partisanship is inexcusable, and really dumb. no wonder this board of trustees is having to act, this foll of a teacher was dumb enough to let the cat out of bag.
You can't force anyone to vote a certain way, when how you vote is private and secret. So the headline used by the Daily Caller is false. The title of your thread is also false. That seems to me to be on-topic.
But the teacher in this case should be fired. She broke the rules which forbid her from promoting her political agenda in the classroom. She's there to teach algebra. Not to campaign politically. I'm even offended that she's been able to collect her salary while on suspension.

Unfortunately we see this happen all the time. I does muddy what is otherwise a valid argument. We see people do it here all the time also.
