WOKE PROFESSOR FORCED TO UNDERGO FREE SPEECH TRAINING AFTER FAILING STUDENT WHO SAID "BIOLOGICAL WOMEN"

Quote:

In a stunning turn of events, the University of Cincinnati has ruled AGAINST a woke professor and is making HER go through educational training to further understand what free speech means.

Adjunct professor Melanie Rose Nipper gave student Olivia Krolczyk in her Women's Gender Studies class when Krolczyk, in a project about the unfair advantages transgender athletes have against biological women, Krolczyk used the "exclusionary" term "biological women." Krolczyk went viral on TikTok discussing the matter and had filed a complaint with the school.

According to the New York Post, Nipper was given a formal reprimand for his actions AND a copy of the letter will go on the professor's permanent record. But the worst indignity? Emphasis mine.
Quote:

In addition to completing training about UC's free speech policy, she must also submit her future syllabi for the upcoming school year for approval.



You love to see it.

Glad to see this! I was part of Young Americans for Liberty back in 2010-2013 while working on my bachelors degree at UC and we had a lawsuit against the school for there anti-free speech policies that required permits to do any kind of activism on campus, even something simple as walking around and talking to people.

Maybe the recent pushback has given the university leadership the backbone to stand up against the vocal fringe

It's weird to me that even that much effort would be applied by the university when it involves an "adjunct professor". I once (sort of) taught a college class. My buddy was the department head and asked me to teach a class. Technically I was an "adjunct professor", but I was only paid a tiny amount, had no status and was more like a contractor. No way would I imagine, had I caused such drama, the school doing anything but showing me the door.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Of course the backflipped. There's very little moral courage in this world and none at university.
Just looking at the pictures of these two, Olivia represents everything that 'professor' hates.

Equality important, get rid of the worthless so called professor. Else they infest another area of academia.

Nothing wrong with that course. But if it is part of a Women's Gender Studies major or minor, THAT'S a problem.

From the "professor":

Quote:

She told them that 'my restriction on harmful speech' was 'necessary to ensure a safe learning environment in the course discussions and for the pedagogical purpose of teaching introductory WGSS theory.'


So, she is now the sole arbiter of free speech, based on her own personal biases that she clearly cannot see are in fact, biases.

No professor, you targeted her because you didn't like what she said because deep down, you know it is true.

Quote:

She said she teaches from a 'intersectional, 4th wave, and transnational feminist perspective,' and argued that the student's chosen topic for her project was 'inappropriate as it targeted trans women as a source of oppression for cis women in sports.'


What a load of bull****….but I guess that is an eloquent way to say "I teach what I want regardless of what is true".

It would be like a physics professor failing a student for using the term gravity.

UC rescinded the prof's formal reprimand but "she" still has to have her syllabus reviewed.
