I find it interesting that the majority can't say anything but the minority can call the barely a majority --if it really is a majority anyways-- crackers... who live in CRACKERLAND. The arguement has nothing to do with if this guy is an aggie. It has to do with if he is a responsible human being.

Ofk-k-k-ourse he is oweded a debt by society for some reason or another. These days, it seems all minorities are. I guess the liberal arts program has to find professors somewhere. This is the very reason why we don't need Vision 2020. Send him back to Puerto Rico.

absolutely ridiculous. i might not agree with his teachings, but saying "send him back to puerto rico" is just f-ing dumb. the man is still a professor, a qualified one at that. whether or not we agree with his agenda is something completely different, but saying "send him back to PR", despite his academic credentials is pretty damn dumb.

honest question...i know he's got an agenda...but are we not confident in the students that we put out that some bright young Aggie will have the opportunity not only to provide informed arguements, but maybe teach the professor something? Rather than look at ways to get rid of him, I would hope that students would look for opportunities to prove this guy wrong by finding the abundance of holes in his philosophies.

Well ok, I don't consider myself a genus but here goes. Hole number one. I am white. I am an aggie, yet I am not a cracker, nor do I live in Crackerland.

Why are you all still in this class? Register a formal complaint......

there you go houston. get into his class and argue your opinion. you'll get something out of it, and so will he.

My head would just blow off in his class. I cannot believe we keep a guy like this on the payroll.

Yesterday in class he referred to the American South as "the Reich".

And all this time I thought the MSC was dedicated to those that died to stop the Nazis...

You know this guy has had lots of students. He probably is undestructable. Cause I know i hated him with a passion and couldn't seem to find a way to deal with him. Lets hope God does.

What a joke, is this guy still at A&M?

This guy is hopefully not one of the additions Gates has made to inflate the number of faculty, and improve the faculty:student ratio.

I bet he would last about 10 seconds on a construction job site......now that would something worth watching.

Did anyone who sent an email to Dr Gates get any kind of response?

I thought about this thread when I read this in the Batt.
