Words fail at the Obama Legacy on divisiveness on so many levels.
It could take several generations to recover. Giant steps backwards.

Universities have gone completely off the rails.

It is good that this college learned discrimination is a 2 way street.

I couldn't find her age but they basically ruined her career and that's why the amount was $4.9 million. That will cover her salary for the next 73 years.

Wonder what she'll do next because even though she was vindicated no school is going to touch her.

Well, that was stupid of them.

I had to laugh though when I read she was planning on teaching into her 70's. Why not 80's or 90's?? She may have gotten more money..lol.

No_Recess, she'll work again. She was unjustly fired for one thing, and even if she wasn't, someone somewhere will hire her.

I'm not sure "higher education" is going to hire her though.

Some place else, sure.

Could be wrong though. You've got to be completely insane to work at a university in any capacity nowadays.
