Why are they even debating whether a man can be harassed in a college classroom? Shouldn't they be studying math, science, history, literature, etc?
Community college sociology is community college sociology. Only value of the course is checking the HR credentialism box for "has a degree." The professor sees it as a soapbox and/or is deeply embittered a better institution never wanted them; the students want to collect the easiest diploma possible and move on (at this school only 22% successfully do, not a typo). Almost no one is there to actually learn.
Degree inflation is the dumbest thing, doubly so when taxpayer subsidized and triply so when four in five students drop out without even the piece of paper.
Because the subjects I list are substantive, useful, and time-tested. Harassment is a bunch of liberal mumbo jumbo and way for trial lawyers to get rich. This was a community college, so the taxpayer foots the bill for all of these liberal mumbo jumbo classes.
You don’t think sexual harassment exists. Interesting.
As usual with these videos, there's not enough to get any sense of context. I do think that, regardless of political views, for any professor or teacher to curse at a student is unprofessional.
Except this is a classroom and the one acting the bully/fool is the professor who holds the power of pass or fail over the students. To debate an opinion is one thing, to insult and shout down differing opinions is not professional behavior for an educator.
And it's not the first time that happened. There's a video posted on Youtube back in 2012 about a teacher who yelled to a student because he asked a question about Obama.
Edit: Maybe that teacher used the French word "phoque" as a loophole to bypass the F-word problem like in Family Guy but it didn't work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nSc9ykewTY
Oh for crying out loud...an instructor offended a student with an F-Bomb. What's he going to do when he's out in the Real World and the same thing (or worse) happens? People need to harden up these days.
Well, you know, Conservatives are so religious and all, that they are deeply offended by any foul language. (except when Donald Trump uses it, that is fine)
Having actually taught at a small University (not a community college), I'm amused. The "prof" is way too easily baited, and needs to find a different career.
LOL you need to look at idiots like this professor as easy good grades. Parrot whatever they spew and take the accolades and grades.
that's almost word-for-word what students are advocating on his rate-my-professor page.
