Harassment and death threats are one thing, but reading the professor's letter, his suspension is completely deserved. What a shitty, close-minded take.

What the professor was trying to offer was fairness and equality, but some idiots think black folks are just too fragile to pass an exam AND protest and thus need special treatment....

You don't need to be at a protest 24/7

You can study and take an exam and still take part
Yeah. Because after a day of breathing in tear gas you really feel like hitting the books.

His response was over the top and unprofessional, and the suspension is deserved (although it's basically nothing for someone who has been there 39 years like this guy).

But the original request, submitted by "non-black allies" just strikes me as white people overstepping. It's not even the black students asking for this. And since the final is the sole thing this class grades on, it's basically a free pass for the entire course which would be unreasonable

Read. The. Fucking. Article.

Not acquiescing to their request is fair. His response and how he handled it is not.

Its worth noting, since conservatives are still pretending that liberal arts degrees are bad, that mathematics and the physical sciences (the basic building blocks of civilization) are among the liberal arts, as well as literature, philosophy, and basically every other aspect of culture and heritage that they would pretend to care about when threatened by what they deem to be liberals, but in fact themselves despise when it comes to actual experience and education.

For that matter, and more on topic, how much do conservatives really care about accounting, which is the class this professor was teaching? I'm willing to bet they're even less enthused about it than most liberal arts.

People calling his response over the top and immature are missing the point. Stupid requests like this deserve to be responded to with vitriol and disdain. If a bunch of adults can't handle being told no and having their feelings hurt then maybe they should grow up a little.

pretty sure you threw a fit about that too though.

Not only did the professor do absolutely nothing wrong, there's also nothing wrong with his letter AND the students who complained are hurting BLM. Selfish idiots, using the movement for their own personal benefit. If it was up to me they'd all get expelled, that's disgusting.

Imagine if you fought in WW2 at age 19 and now you see people that same age whining about needing more time for an exam cuz they wanna stand in the streets and yell at people. Then you see the professor get suspended saying that's ridiculous.

Fucking embarrassing lol

"after he rejected his non-black students' appeals for him to be lenient with his black students." "The story began when a group of students, who described themselves as 'non-black allies' of their black peers, wrote to Klein asking for him to effectively cancel the final exams for black students."

The best and most cringe part, white liberals really can come off so condescending lmao
