Cry harder.

Just teach the subject without inserting your own politics. It is not hard.

Students unite against faculty being punished for violating law, rules, and incompetence.

Sad.

Exactly the argument against tenure in a nutshell.

I know nothing I say will affect how professors, staff, and current students are viewed. However, the blind, dismissive hate of all concerns (especially those of students… fellow Aggies) will damage Texas A&M in the long run and cost future Aggies the highest quality educations. Congrats, I guess.


Seems like a deflection. This issue came about because a professor failed their duties.

Then that person should stand up and be brave. Make a statement. Don't write an anonymous letter. Doing that makes he/she look weak.

I thought I might send this to the Batt, but figured it might get more views on f16...


Interesting - not a word about the triggering event...

Quote:

"...illegally teaching gender identity and transgender ideology in violation of President Donald Trump's executive order that declares there are only two genders. Instructor Melissa McCoul responded, "My gender isn't illegal," resulting in a back-and-forth exchange between the two."

Against the will of Texas' voters, a legal EO; and in spite of the most basic conclusions a balanced mind can draw, they insist they have a right to teach young people at a taxpayer funded school that the sun rises in the west and the moon is made of cheese.

It used to be that Leftist educators could threaten A&M with reputational damage by dumping the table and stomping out of the room. Thank God things have changed. Now, by leaving, they're not only giving us a desperately needed intellectual colonic; but also signaling to Texans, (and what's left of the critically thinking academic world), that an enlightened reformation is under way at one of America's most important flagship universities.

This. It's truly amazing that these folks feel compelled to bring politics into the classroom. You know what that would get you in a real workplace most of the time? ****ed.

I doubt professors in legitimate fields such as engineering, physics, etc. are worried about anything like this. But in general, many, many more students both at A&M and around the country need to do exactly what the A&M student did and expose more of this nonsense, not less. It's laughable the notion that everyone should let the professors handle things internally, especially considering what happened in this case! The teacher was completely intolerant of opposing views and the university tried to silence her. More sunlight is needed to disinfect.

They did more than try to silence her. They flat-out tried to punish her

Yep, going to miss the LGBQT children's literature class. Obviously, a tragedy most certain which will forever stain our institution.

Dog, if you feel that strongly, go elsewhere. You will never be happy at A&M. T

here are issues more important than giving up tenure (I know personally), and this seems to be yours. Vote your feet aligned with those strong convictions.

Cry more professor


Try to read it without rolling your eyes. Try to have empathy with where many professors and researchers are at right now. Understand their importance for our school academically. Now, when I say try to have empathy, that doesn't mean you need to show sympathy or agree with them, but try to see their perspective and how it could impact our state university that we all love so much.

***lol at this getting moved to F16. Comments in response will be wild***

No, you have empathy for children, having empathy as adults for adults is abnormal behavior. Its called SYMPATHY.

Especially because the "brilliant" professor can't even spell a simple word like 'led.'

Takes two to tango... these liberal idiots that somehow have convinced themselves that they are "servants" for the people don't give two ****s about empathy for the students or alumni.

They want to be Alinskys, gutting Texas A&M and wearing it as a skin suit.

What a load of crap.

Want to know what is damaging Texas A&M? Prof's/Presidents/lecturers/etc. injecting politics into their classes or on campus stuff.

I don't ever remember any of my prof's injecting any type of personal politics in any of my classes.

They damn sure wouldn't have taken part of any Sully protest like that one moron did.


Like someone else posted... Teach the course material you are supposed to teach and leave everything else out of it.

I don't want to know anything about your family, your beliefs, or anything else.

One last thing.. please don't have an accent so thick you can't be understood!

I have no empathy at all for professors who spent the last 30 years driving every conservative, moderate and center left professor out of academia. This letter is totally laughable as they are describing how every non-leftist was treated for decades. Now that they are getting a tiny taste of their own medicine, they cry foul.

You invented the techniques that are being used against you professor. You live by the sword, you die by the sword!

Professors who act professionally and teach the curriculum are viewed as assets to the university.

Staff who act professionally and make sure professors teach the curriculum are viewed as assets to the university.

No one has said anything negative about students on F16.

I think you are getting the sides confused. The only blind, dismissive hate is coming from the left, as one example, who spewed crap for days about Charlie Kirk even though he never even raised his voice to a someone he disagreed with. All he did was to say that we should have a conversation. That is blind hate.

No one went in blind. Not teaching the curriculum and claiming there are more than two genders, (which 2 genders is a biological fact BTW), is a fireable offense, and that is what the student and alumni asked for. The President did the rest on his own due to hubris, vindictive behavior (either direct or tolerating it) and deceit.

Dismissive hate... Not sure what this means, but can only assume that claiming the biological fact of only two genders must seem like hate to lefties. There was not an ounce of hate in F16 or in any of the calls for people to lose their jobs.

If you truly worried about the future of the Aggie students and the highest quality education, then you would be FOR ALL INDOCTRINATION TO GET OUT OF THE SCHOOL, as 95% is lies or half truths, which only bring down the education when stuff that is NOT TRUE is being taught.

"All concerns"? Thats blind ideology or ignorance. I am confident eliminating all radical ideology from our university will prepare the students for the real world. Have you seen any reports of radical ideology from the right at A&M? I'd love to see it.

I guarantee this letter is from a professor in the College of Arts and Science or Education. Education curriculum has been infested with a heavy DEI emphasis.

I would have some empathy if the poon identified themselves instead he cries to the Batt and does it without having any courage. Also his/her security? Is she/he afraid a liberal will shoot him?

Fixed for assuming the poon's gender.



Kinda makes you miss the days when certain anti-Bonfire profs still had the balls to put anti-Bonfire signs in their office windows.

There is a good message in some of that diatribe, other parts of it I disagree with vehemently, but this type of thing is just ridiculous egocentric language to me.

If you cannot dazzle one with brilliance, baffle them with BS.

And this is BS for if this "educator" does his job the way the people of Texas expect that he/she does, there will be no problems.

" This is a precarious moment in A&M's history. Your education will change that much is certain. The only question is whether it changes at the hands of outside forces, or because you choose to be the agent of change."

This tenured professor is overly dramatic and does not know how to present a logical argument.


The irony is so rich. Not from Texas, educated elsewhere, they bring their ideology with them and infiltrate and subvert and, now we're the outside forces?

Beat it professor. Don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you!
