I heard about Tatiana Menaker in kattracks' post of her article, My Second Marxist Indoctrination.

From Walkout on War:

Disgruntled by the crowd of students, Tatiana Menaker, creative writing major at SF State called the protesting students spoiled children of democracy. She used to be a professor of Marxism in the Soviet Union and now studies at SF State.

"Those are spoiled children of democracy, all those kids never lived in a tyrannical regime," said Menaker, as she pointed at the large crowd at Malcolm X Plaza.

Campus Marxists are a funny bunch--until they end up running your country ***Both of my grandfathers were exterminated by Stalinist terror. My father and mother both barely escaped the Gulag. But here I am, with PhD students, being treated to a one-hour discussion about "homophobia" on campus. My colleagues are agonizing about how "Homophobia-Free Zone" pink stickers must be put on every door in the university. "But what if a professor or a teaching assistant refuses to have one put on his door?" one of them asks indignantly. After a few seconds of silence, another answers, "Well, then a committee might just have to be set up where these people will be taken to account." Serious head-nods follow. *** ----Related stories

WOW, she has good fighting spirit!

Tatiana Menaker must perform 40 hours of community service for a nonprofit community group with a charitable purpose after she made comments to pro-Palestinian demonstrators during a San Francisco State University rally in May.

.....

Menaker was facing disciplinary action for calling a pro-Palestinian student a sharmoota (the Arabic word for bitch) and telling another to "Go f--- your camels" in response to other defamatory words during a May 7 rally.

Two pro-Palestinian students also faced counts, but accepted settlement agreements following separate hearings before an administrative law judge last month.

Because it is SFSU policy not to comment on its disciplinary proceedings, it is currently unclear what type of sentences the pro-Palestinian students are facing.

Therefore Jewish community leaders said they are in the dark as to whether or not the sentences are proportionate.
