Should a transgender college student be expected to sit through a college level art course without being “triggered”?   An art professor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) has resigned after being vilified by LGBT students in what he describes as a toxic and hostile politically correct environment.

Professor Michael Bonesteel, an art critic, author, and specialist in the history of comics and the history of outsider art, resigned after 14 years with SAIC when his hours were cut and his healthcare was lost in response to accusations of racism and homophobia when two transgender students were “triggered” by course material and lodged complaints.

Colleges and universities are going down the tubes. Perhaps as professors and staff see how insane things have become - for Christ's sake this guy was charged with sexual harassment by administration for saying a WORD that triggered a melted snowflake - they will make a change.

We are here: Francis A. Schaeffer has argued, “If there are no absolutes by which to judge society, then society is absolute.” Francis Schaeffer, How Shall We Then Live? (Old Tappan NJ: Fleming H Revell Company, 1976), p. 224. Wait until all the true Christians refuse to teach anyone fo fear of "hate crimes," then what will you have?

Reminds me of the story of Lot, where the three messengers of God took up shelter with Lot and the door was set upon by the inhabitants of Sodom, who insisted on “getting to know” them.

We all know what happened next.

This case is easily explainable.
Most art schools are not selective.
So everyone there is an irreplacable paying customer.
The customer is always right.
Even if the customer is very likely an idiot.

Given that Bonesteel is an Art History professor whose specialty is comic books and Outsider Art, I bet he sees himself as a Liberal.

In which case all I can say is "Wow, man, that's too bad," as I munch on my popcorn.

Just wha % of these fags are in the total population?

These “trannies” should be forbidden to try to pass themselves off as the opposite sex until they undergo a complete transformation. If you still have male genitalia, you’re a male. If you have female genitalia, you’re a female. This whole “trannie” thing is out of control. The politicians pimping this crap need their asses kicked.

Doesn’t the name Bogus Times imply that this is, might I suggest, bogus?? Or am I missing something?

[Billthedrill]

It's a really stupid name, no lie. But it does look as if this really happened. I'd hate to think about the trouble Bonesteel would be in if he ever tried to teach a course on the underground comix of the 70's.

[catnipman]

within a couple of years at “schools” like this one, the only “teachers” left will function solely as nannies and babysitters, making sure the inmates don’t fling excessive amounts of poo on the asylum walls.

What on earth will these triggered fools do with no professor on staff to explain the dynamics between Archie and Reggie or Betty and Veronica in the historical Archie double digest #167 ??? Ohhhh the hugh manitee . /s

It will be interesting to see what happens to colleges that eat themselves in this manner. In particular, am kind of interested in what becomes of Evergreen State. Anyone who is not a lunatic leftist will probably transfer out.

You mean like Uncle Uh Uh and his Garbage Truck,or Sam's Pure N---er Hearts.

[Billthedrill]

You mean like...

LOL! Oh, yeah. Or Cap'n Pissgums or Felch Comix or anything by Spain Rodriguez or Robert Crumb...

I don't think the snowflakes would survive the covers.

Gad ... to think of all the issues of 'sex to sexty' I threw away when I got married.

[manc]

mentally insane people are now running about saying they are the opposite sex, and now getting laws to protect them , while the media,and other nutjobs cheer these people on.

[Mercat]

I haven’t heard that name for 40+ years. He must be dead.

The subtitle of the site's name is "Exposing the bogus news and insanity of the liberal elite."

Wonder Warthog and Purple*ss Baboon would really get them going.

Orwellian insanity. These worthless “students” should be told to shape up and get a clue.

Of course the “prof” is teaching a garbage curriculum anyway, those don’t sound like courses that are worth taking or teaching. Nonetheless, nothing the prof reportedly said should be the subject of any kind of penalty at all.

“Higher education” is being overrun by Leftards and the so-called adults are abdicating all responsibility.
