The worst part of this is the professor's union is standing up for them. This is a blatant attack on free speech at a public university by a faculty member.
NYC college professor cursed out anti-abortion students tabling at school
NYC college professor cursed out anti-abortion students tabling at school
Manhattan college professor flipped out on a group of students who set up an information table opposing abortion inside the school building — cursing and tossing their pamphlets, video of the interaction shows.
Shellyne Rodriguez, an adjunct professor, told the pro-life students they were “triggering” her students by tabling inside Hunter College in Manhattan earlier this month.
The PSC Graduate Center, a labor union chapter representing CUNY professors and graduate assistants, said it stands by Rodriguez “against right wing anti-abortion backlash” and added that her actions were justified.
The center said the pro-life students “set up a table and prominent banners to propagate dangerously false propaganda.”
“Her actions to shut down the tabling were fully justified, and are part of a long and celebrated CUNY legacy of confronting groups such as military recruiters who disseminate misleading information,” the group said in a letter of support.
