Ah, so it's OK off the clock for a prof to say that all the executives running the college are retarded ****. Got it.

Seems like the university simply caved to some leftist professor.

There isn’t a public school teacher anywhere worth a severance package of $2M. That would be clear public malfeasance.

Okay



My quotes are from your link.

Did you read your own link?

Because public universities are government entities, tenured professors may be entitled to procedural due process under the Fourteenth Amendment before being terminated.


They just needed to suspend him first while conducting investigation.

Addition by subtraction here. Absolutely nothing of value was lost, and the damage this bitch would do to students going forward would be far greater than $1.9 million. UT came out way ahead on this.

There have been $1 million settlements before.


I am saying she is being paid to go away, like a severance package. And she's not the first one.

If this is true from 1898:
"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Then why did we have to pass a Constitutional amendment in 1924 to make native Americans legal citizens? Were they not subject to the US jurisdiction?

Just a question...

Maybe answer the question rather than downvoting... makes it look like you don't have an answer...


Because the United States Government did not consider Native Americans to be human beings.

They were placed on reservations and not considered citizens of the U.S.

The real crime is that state universities across the land are paying people like this thing in droves to "teach" shite like "Queer Anthropology, Feminist Anthropology and Decolonization," at what I'm sure are rather healthy six-figure salaries.

“Another” implied another settlement.

The guy who went to jail for 37 days and got $835k was absolutely about the 1st, not a university due process procedure error.

As far as I know, the constitution treated native Americans as members of a tribal sovereign, independent nation. Where does it say they were considered not to be human beings?

Yep. They weren't citizens of the United States were they? Because they weren't Americans I guess.

"criticized"?? more like celebrated his murder:

“His wife, well she’s a sick frick for marrying him so I don’t [sic] care about his feelings.”


Perhaps, Charlie Kirk's estate can sue for defamation of character and take that settlement from that vile leftist.

Profs in that field make less than $100K in most cases. 67% of 1.9 is basically a life salary for her.

And we can defend free speech, but we all know that failing to tow the leftist line in the Academy has resulted in many dismissals over the last 20 years.
