Students told to sign obama pledge

[g5000]

Here is what Wiki says:

Brevard Community College - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brevard Community College, founded in 1960, is a community college on Florida's Space Coast, in Brevard County, Florida. It has four campuses in Cocoa, Melbourne, Palm Bay, and Titusville, as well as an Aerospace program at Kennedy Space Center and a Virtual Campus. BCC is a member institution of the Florida College System.

So let's look at the Florida College System: Florida College System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Florida College System, previously known as the Florida Community College System, is an organization of twenty-eight public community colleges and state colleges in the U.S. state of Florida. In 2009, enrollment consisted of over 800,000 students.[1] Together with the State University System of Florida, which includes Florida's eleven public four-year universities, it is part of Florida's system of public higher education.

While governed by local boards, the colleges and technical centers are coordinated under the jurisdiction of Florida's State Board of Education.

So it appears the Professor is a state employee.

RIght, you don't want to get rid of federal student loans, you just want to keep government out of them! LOL! I guess you wanna keep government off your Medicare, too?

Idiot.

Yes. I want to get rid of federal student loans.

Right. I know you do. That's the point - any student going to school on federal student loans would be an idiot to vote Republican. Fuck you're slow.

Now answer the rest of the quote you butchered. Tell me where the Constitution gives the federal government the right to make student loans.
Then, get back on topic.

 

[Ernie S.]

RIght, you don't want to get rid of federal student loans, you just want to keep government out of them! LOL! I guess you wanna keep government off your Medicare, too?

Idiot.

Wow. Are you so far gone you cannot comprehend that the government isn't the only entity capable of making student loans?

Holy shit!

.

Oh, yeah, because I'm sure private banks would just jump at the opportunity to make uncollateralized loans to 18 year olds with no work history no credit history and little to no income at affordable rates. Wow. You're so smart at finance maybe you should be a banker.

They've been doing it for years, but bankers are not running for office.

Do you suppose Professor Sweets will be prosecuted for violating Florida code: Section 104.31, of Title IX in chapter 104?

A college professor has been placed on leave after she allegedly forced her class to sign a pledge to vote for President Obama in the upcoming elections.

Early last week Professor Sharon Sweet at Brevard Community College (BCC) allegedly told students to sign a pledge that reads: “I pledge to vote for President Obama and Democrats up and down the ticket.

What part of "allegedly" do you not understand?

The part where everybody started using that word to protect their own asses from being sued even though they knew the person they were talking about was guilty as hell.

I am smart at finance. I am one of the few who made money during the crash.

I guess you are unaware the federal student loan program is bleeding heavy losses. So the only financial dumbasses are people like you who don't mind taxpayers paying for the idiocy of government lenders.

Maybe you should go to school and learn about finance.

[Ernie S.]

Ernie you really are an idiot. Wanna explain how any pledge on how to vote is enforcable?

I never claimed it was enforceable, idiot, only illegal.
NOW suppose you read the statute in the link I provided, and tell me if you think requiring students to sign a political pledge at a government funded school violates that statute.

Then come back and call me an idiot again, idiot!

You did not provide a link.

How 'bout quoting the statute you cited?

.

Thanks for pointing that out. I had intended to provide the link. I have added the link in the OP. Here is the statute:

Section 104.31, of Title IX in chapter 104, states that “no officer or employee of the state... shall... use his or her official authority or influence for the purpose of interfering with an election or nomination of officer or influencing another person’s vote or affecting the result thereof.”

Enforcement isn't the issue intent is Einstein.If true she and anyone backing her is more than just an idiot.

And if you think that alone makes you smart at finance then you aren't.

I guess you are unaware the federal student loan program is bleeding heavy losses.

All the more reason for private industry to want to take on the risk, right genius?

So the only financial dumbasses are people like you who don't mind taxpayers paying for the idiocy of government lenders.

You don't even know what the federal student loan program is for. You apparentnly think it was set up to post a profit.

Maybe you should go to school and learn about finance.

.

Is an advanced degree in the area required before someone realizes its stupid for someone who relies on federal student loans to vote to have them abolished?

They've been doing it for years,

And they are such a better option for students that no one even signs up for the federal loan program anymore.

but bankers are not running for office.

Bankers don't have to run for office, they own the people who are in office.

Now that you've made an idiot of yourself, could you please get back on topic?

Why should she? Regardless of how you feel about her action, it does not violate that statutory provision.

 

[Polk]

What part of "allegedly" do you not understand?

What part of "tampering with voters," a FELONY, has you dumbfounded - nutsack.

You should look up what "tampering" means in the context of election law.

It's always the Socialist/Progressive assholes who try to force their agendas on the children. And that's because they now control our School System. Until that changes, our Schools will remain indoctrination dungeons for American Children.

People in their early 20s aren't children.

Associate Professor Sharon Sweet, 58, requested and was granted an unpaid leave of absence this morning as senior college officials investigate. Sweet did not return phone messages or an email seeking comment this afternoon....

“The college takes this policy extremely seriously,” Glisch said, referencing a policy that prohibits employees from soliciting support for a political candidate during working hours or on college property.

“We are a nonpartisan, public institution,” he said. “It is very important that all of our faculty and staff act in that manner at work and while they’re on campus.”

Glisch said college officials investigating the complaints will be interview the roughly 100 students in Sweet’s classes. In addition, college provosts are re-iterating in the college’s policy to employees.

Wrong! She is an employee of the State of Florida in violation of the statute that reads, in part:

...no officer or employee of the state... shall... use his or her official authority or influence for the purpose of interfering with an election

 

[Polk]

Key phrase: official authority.

Not all people attending School are in their 20s. In fact, most aren't.

I'm pretty sure most people in a class at a community college are in their early 20s.

Concerned parents? Of a college student?

This will go nowhere.
