Professor suspended for refusing to give Black students easier final exams sues UCLA

[Persuader]

How can any black graduate have any sort of legitimate academic status as a result of affirmative action being in force for decades now.

The universities might as well just print up a bunch of diplomas and give them to any black that wants one and save everyone a lot of time and trouble....because in a nutshell that is what they are doing.

In what ?? Degrees in what lol

Jews get real degrees and don’t ask for copies of the exam

A college degree means zero unless you have a real area that matters

This is why government continues to expand so it can provide jobs to people who have worthless degrees.

*****SMILE*****

More reason to question the credentials of any black professional.

I see it a bit differently: How can a black graduate have any scintilla of pride when he knows he got his degree because he wasn't as smart as the white guy?

Try engineering and business. Why do you think NASA can't build a rocket after 20 yrs. Why do you think we are scrapping warships decades before their life cycle.

 

[Quasar44]

Business is a zero

Computer science is the best degree

Engineering pays shiiit

 

[Quasar44]

USA imports many engineers abroad and it keeps the $$$ very low

Accounting pays bad

Law pays the best and its dominated by Jews

Your OP is misleading and not accurate. The professor was never asked to give black students easier final exams by the school… and his suspension had nothing to do with final exams, it had to do with an email he sent to a student which many perceived as racist and a petition with tens of thousands of signatures circulated to have him fired. He was suspended while the school looked into the situation and then reinstated. Try and be more accurate with your posts please. There is too much fake news circulating, don’t be a part of that. Be better.

It's got to be athletes. I'm not going to read the story because "Washington Times" is a horrible news source.

They don't want you to flunk the basketball star. Sports make the colleges lots of money.

May the teacher kick butt. In my opinion, there isn't a thing wrong with treating students all the same. To me, anyone who tries to get special treatment shouldn't be all that surprised if they only end up getting a big fat zero instead.

God bless you and the teacher always!!!

There is another thread which sheds a bit more light on this situation. One of the things the student in question suggested was a “no-harm exam” (which could only help and not harm a final grade). My alma mater at my undergrad university employed this method - if you had an 'A' going into the final exam, you weren't required to take the final because its purpose was to give a student a final opportunity to raise their grade for the course.

What this student is asking for is a change of policy and you don't do that for only certain students, it should be implemented across the board and apply to all students, if it is considered and granted at all.

Furthermore you don't make the request right before one is required to take their final exam and expect to get a pass on the exam simply because the student failed to adequately prepare for their final.

I don't blame the instructor at all for taking the action he has.
