And I always thought UCLA was a tough school to get into.

“A hostile campus climate has been the norm for Students of Color in this class throughout the quarter as our epistemological and methodological commitments have been repeatedly questioned by our classmates and our instructor. The barrage of questions by white colleagues and the grammar ‘lessons’ by the professor have contributed to a hostile class climate.”


That's not what your minority scholarship says...

I am more annoyed by these dumbfricks.

The same type of a-hole that has forced the greatest work of modern American literature -a book written to shine light on what the author felt was the most visible scar on American culture- out of the hands of many. Ignorance breeds contempt.

When I taught I could tell from the get-go which students simply copied and pasted off of Wikipedia because at least those were grammatically correct.

Al Sharpton has taught these students well. Take anything negative that happens to a black person, especially if it is their fault, blow it out of proportion and voila: you have racism.

In grad school I handed in a well written (in my mind) and thoroughly researched paper. The prof kicked it back with a "D" because I used the male pronoun in all instances in which the subject could be male or female. When questioned on it, I pointed out that the ruling grammar guide (at that time) directed use of the male pronoun in instances in which the sex wasn't specified.

He still insisted that I change the paper to be more "fair". I literally went through and made every other pronoun "her" so that they alternated. Never mind that it made the paper practically unreadable. He corrected my grade to an "A".

I am sure they had to run and grab a dictionary for this sentence.
