In the meantime I just don't care about being politically correct any more. And I stay away from situations that demand it. I may get into trouble but I just don't care anymore

The targets of treatment like this often protest it as a violation of tenure, but tenure is part of the problem and should not exist. For every good teacher whom tenure somewhat protects, it saves a dozen Melissa Clicks from their just deserts.

And in what it teaches by bad example: Be a whining, professional "victim" and/or a thug, and the system will make sure you prevail. Everyone else, stay home.

We'll only be free of political correctness when the courts overturn (1) the Dept. of Education's "Dear Colleague" letter; (2) the so-called "sexual harassment in the workplace" law; and (3) all so-called civil rights laws that contain the phrase or concept of "disparate impact". And even then it will remain urgently necessary to make sure SJWs never manage to infiltrate any organization we care about keeping.

Here here well said MA

Hillary is a bad and evil person who uses manipulation and politics to hide what she does

Nick, I agree and don't feel sorry for her at all. She is just another gutless white teacher who didn't properly tow the line while genuflecting and groveling to her PC masters. Looks like the crocodile she was feeding turned and ate her!

The "check your white privilege" mantra is a race card industry bromide used by its proponents to extort and intimidate innocent and naive white people into some form of submission to the goals of said industry.

Oddly, the article also notes she is being roasted for saying some students dropped out because they are failing and that statement is immediately translated by the PC mob to "people of color are failing". Well, what about the non-white Asian people who are on average excelling academically? How does the PC color obsessed crowd deal with that?

Yep, and then there is something like 97 Trillion in derivatives attached to all that paper, more paper, more paper....When it all becomes just paper, and they start screaming about how much they have lost (which is in reality nothing), the apocalypse begins...

many meanings for the same term, but it is always the emotional hot button use that gets all the attention. Look at Rubios hand thing, and he thought he was being cute. Of course Trump buffooned his way into it....

I am thinking the criticism is for the entire system, as system that actually legalizes and promotes classes that need to define and illustrate "micro inequities" and other assorted BS. The to see the wolves turn on one of their own, is illustrative of the predatory nature of those who would manipulate and twist free speech to their own meaning, irregardless of the truth or even reality. Much as Black Lives Matter started as a small group of people trying to actually raise the issue in a specific area with some specific police departments, was hijacked into a media circus, and the term became a twisted meaning of what they meant from the beginning.

I've read some of the comments here and I'm wondering why your criticising this woman, Has any one bothered to look up the meaning of the word " Nigger"? It's shortened form the word "Negro" which is the name of a race of people, We know that this word has become an insult like a lot of other words where the original meaning has been changed, Do we now have to refer to a dictionary before we speak? Bring back free speech

It will take a huge disaster to bring about any change. But in this current climate, the change will be for the worse, not the better, I am afraid.

I just find it ironic how they celebrate "free speech" and protest "for rights" until it is something they do not approve of, then the fascist hats come out. They are as hypocritical as any despotic tyrant there has been. That particular item really pissed me off, as the California elite have been the prime movers of "free speech" crap for the last 50 years or so. That professor should be indicted by the Justice Department for violating the students civil rights as well as Shapiros.

Close enough...yep..

What a world we have to navigate.

The student "protests" at Cal State Univ Los Angeles were instigated by professors at the university. One of the professors was personally ripping down the posters and threatening the students posting them. The professor and students were protesting a lecture to be presented by Ben Shapiro discussing the stupidity of campus safe spaces and the erosion of freedom of speech on college campuses. Gotta love irony..

sounds like localized civil war battles. -- j

Exactly the issue in politics today. Cruz is as charismatic as an enema, and Trump is what comes out. Rubio is like a teen just learning what the middle finger means and Bernie is a senile old farty curmudgeon, and HillaryBeast is the evil criminal mastermind. Not much charisma there...

Indeed +1

Yep, at least Private ones have an incentive to have some sort of quality. Public ones can be runny monkey diarrhea and still get all the money they want to waste.Now they want free stools, not even some pretense of having to pay their own way too...

Depends John, they are so insular in the education empire, it is almost a seperate creature. Even the law and constitution have no meaning except what THEY give it. There was a case of a conservative speaker in California last week who the "enlightened" students rioted, ripped down his posters, blocked the entrances to the building (except for one) and generally made it impossible for him to speak. Yet when a bunch of rioters screaming Black lives matter" burn a town, the cops stand by. This irregular interpretation of freedom and personal liberty and rights is my fuse...burning fast too..
