The problem is that people like her think that you are helping someone by just giving them something.

Hand them a degree without having to actually work for it and watch them fail in the real world to their own astonishment.

And when Debra Thomas tries to be a human and speak rationally, she is "forced to apologize." I guess it doesn't matter that police killed three times as many white people last year.

And the white teachers are all racists, apparently. At Oberlin. Yeah.

Electing community organizers has consequences.

Edit - shite, I googled her. So she's the hyphen bitch daughter of two lesbians. Shocking. And further clicks reveal that she's been a sandy twat pretty much since birth.

Did the prof simply respond "no"?...

This is where Lena Dunham made up her story about getting raped, right?


The guy named Barry, that she names in her story has retained a lawyer to sue her. She was very specific about this guy in her story naming where he worked and what he looked like. She deserves to lose everything for this, if indeed, it was a lie.

At what point in our history did we decide lowering the bar was a better option than striving to be the best.

Sad

frick this dumb bitch. I'm white and had a teacher tell me that I would fail her class if I missed any more days when I told her my grandmother was very sick and I would possibly be missing days if she got worse. It was my last set of classes and a bullshite one at that before I graduated.


Yeah, one of my grandmother's died and I had to go to the funeral. I had a test the same day as the funeral. I told the professor and he said he would address that in class. As soon as class started, the professor said, "So, I was just asked what to do if you had a funeral for your grandmother on the day of my test. You have two options. You can take the test on that day, or you can get a zero."

This is the worst kind of racism, because no one ever notices it under the veil of good intentions.

I had to bring my dad's obituary to be able to take a test I missed for his funeral.

It's soft racism and lowered expectations.

I had food poisoning before my last exam my second year of law school. I asked if I could take a make up. They said "no," and put me in a room by myself with a trash can to puke in.

I loathe arrogant liberals who claim to be "all for diversity" and who then attend a school that is not very racially diverse.

Exactly. I would honestly rather she call me a dumb n***** to my face, and I'm not even exaggerating.

What's really messed up is that she probably thinks she is being compassionate when in fact, she's demostrating a complete lack of empathy by believing her black classmates require some type of charity here.

That's taking things a bit too far. I understand that people do lie about things like this, and that kind of cheating can really piss off a teacher. But he should have at least given you the opportunity to prove it. He should have let you take the test early if he thought you were just trying to get out of it. That's the kind of justifiable thing that should be able to be taken to the dean.
