It is obvious that modern leftist philosophers are not simply cool-headed logicians systematically analyzing the foundations of knowledge. They are deeply involved emotionally in their attack on truth and reality

This professor according to his linked in had many failed businesses’ and then decided it was easier to teach people about entrepreneurship rather than being a successful entrepreneur.

Zackly. I have a business and there's no way in hell I'd take a pay cut and teach about business. These days professors are generally people that have spent their lives in the academic bubble and never tested their theories in the real world. They have an ever-revolving audience of kids that are too ignorant to call them on their bullshite and they get to feel powerful. The worst ones also try to push their shitty political beliefs on their captive audience instead of teaching them how to think.

Around 1980, Louisiana State University medical school professor Lewis Graham was found guilty Sunday of beating his wife to death with a 4-pound sledgehammer. Dr Graham was also the dean of admissions.
This was a very high profile case at the time.

Professor beaten over apparent grant envy

April 13, 2002
RUSTON - Jealousy over apparently being left out of a high-dollar grant left a Lincoln Parish university professor accused of attempted second-degree murder after he allegedly struck a colleague on the head with a hammer. Ruston police arrested Zhenchen Zhong, 38, of Ruston, late Thursday night following an attack on Jia Ping Liu with a claw hammer from the backseat of Liu's vehicle. Zhong was being held in the Lincoln Detention Center. Bond is $250,000. Liu was treated and released from a Ruston hospital.

Liu's wife told police Zhong was "very jealous and envious" her husband won a grant and he hadn't, Ruston police Public Information Officer Mike Freeman said Friday. The two men hold dual professorships at Louisiana Tech and Grambling State universities. Both are assistant professors at Tech and work in the university's Institute for Micromanufacturing. They're also non-tenured assistant professors in GSU's physics department. "Everybody is shocked to death about it," Tech spokesman Wiley Hilburn said.

Officials familiar with the grant could not be reached for comment Friday afternoon.

Freeman said in addition to the hammer, investigators also recovered a black nylon bag belonging to Zhong which contained orange packing rope, duct tape, latex surgical gloves, typing paper, a notepad and a Bible printed in Chinese.

“It’s unclear at this time why he had these items with him," Freeman said. Police say Zhong asked Liu, 41, also of Ruston, for a ride from the Tech campus Thursday, after saying he'd misplaced his car keys. Zhong insisted on sitting in the back seat directly behind Liu, Freeman said. When Liu stopped in front of a residence on Bonaparte Drive where Zhong lives, Zhong attacked saying he wanted Liu to die, Freeman said. Liu was able to get the hammer away from the suspect, before fleeing from his car toward a friend's home on nearby West Kentucky Avenue.

Investigators said Zhong then drove Liu's white Toyota Camry to Liu's house on Misty Lane, only a short distance from the scene. Officers found the "severely battered" Liu at the West Kentucky residence and Zhong in Liu's front yard with the friend who had summoned police, Freeman said. "We also found a significant amount of blood in the car," Freeman said. He said spatters of blood were on the roof, headrest and driver's seat.

Freeman said the friend, who's also a Tech professor, rushed to Liu's home, evidently fearful the other man's family was in jeopardy. Liu told investigators Zhong asked on Tuesday if he was going to be in Ruston on Thursday. Liu had been planning a trip outside the United States, Freeman said. He said Liu also told police he had seen Zhong with the nylon bag about a week before the incident.
