I say this because just last night I was told about this. A good friend that is in college said that she had one class yesterday where her professor who is apparently the exception to the rule said he does not "play for grades". He said to the whole class that unlike some other professors he does not do that. I was astounded about this and my friend kind of chuckled and said "we all know which professors will do that, they make it very clear to us". Then she said "why do you think I dress for school the way I do? It's to keep these guys from bothering me!" I had wondered about that since I noticed how she dressed for school. She has a playboy model body which she covers up for school.
They’re just piss off that Ayers didn’ get his free library privileges.
The school was riddled with Communists and Fellow Travelers when I was there 50 years ago. Nothing has changed except perhaps that there are more of them and they are more obvious.
Heard this fool on Michael Medved the other day. He’s a complete lunatic. I don’t know that I’ve ever heard anyone that lived in such a complete fantasy or who hates America more. It’s a disgrace that he’s paid with public funds.
Actually, your stereotypes are far from the norm. Both my husband and I teach college, giving us an inside view. Most teachers teach because they want to and they care about students. They could make a lot more money by “doing” and have the ability to do so, but they actually enjoy teaching. Is this true of all college teachers? Of course not. But most of them are there because they teach well and care about their charges.
So did I. It was painful and I turned the channel. He was awful.
Imbecile or not he does have the freedom to speak. Your comment sounds like conservatives are going to reverse what patriots died for.
We have a right to free speech in this nation and if you don't like it maybe you can try the Nazi party so tough shit. Even though I don't agree with Green I will work to stop you from reversing anything our boys fought and died to preserve.
Freedom to speak is more important than your need to be pleased. Conservative my arse.
I wouldn’t care about this silly opinion if this guy didn’t also think that shouting “Death to the USA” is a fair and legitimate form of political expression. :)
This elitist snob POS needs to be given a one way trip to Parris Island where he can exercise his First Amendment rights and spout his anti-American slime to a more receptive audience.
Green’s 2009 salary was $36,388 of Illinois tax dollars.
A PhD in the sociology of education gets you a $36,388 annual salary. And he has been on the staff for quite a few years. PhD in the sociology of education, $36K. There is a not so subtle message there.
Maybe she is experiencing something isolated. I’m a bit past college so I have no first hand experience as to what is going on today. She made the situation sound so matter of fact. As if it was odd for me not to know about this kind of stuff. I was amazed that the professor in her class yesterday actually told a room full of students that they can forget about “trading” him for a better grade.
I'm not your boy.
This links contains a great response to Green from a UI student . . . http://bigpeace.com/mseavey/2010/09/22/university-of-illinois-official-laments-chicken-hawk-display-of-false-patriotism-at-football-games/
If memory serves, this chant caused great distress to the Iron Sheik, who responded in a distinctly antisocial fashion.
Maybe there had just been an incident of this happening and students were talking about it. It DOES happen and it has happened where my husband works. But far and away the real story is how hard these people work and how dedicated they are. The professors where my husband works make a lot less than kindergarten teachers in the school district here. But they work very hard. I’ve taken a lot of classes there myself and have been very impressed. I have not found it true that teacher teach because they can’t do.
“Your comment sounds like conservatives are going to reverse what patriots died for.”
No, it doesn’t. Not even remotely.
Better read it again.
What a vile piece of human dung.
What could he POSSIBLY teach anyone’s kids?
Ditto on your sentiments from a fellow college educator...;-)
Okay. Instead I'll chant "Green's a jerk! Green's a jerk!"
Congratulations! I just think that college professors get dumped on way too much here.
