A professor recently began to advance his idea on how to combat onerous progressive ideologies on campus, encouraging students to report professors who bash Christians, white people and conservatives to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and Title IX offices for investigation.
Conservative students should file complaints for speech that attacks their identity – especially when it comes from a professor, said Adam Ellwanger, a professor of English at the University of Houston-Downtown, in a recent telephone interview with The College Fix.
“There is a perception that the DEI and Title IX offices exist just to support leftist activism, but there is nothing keeping students from filing complaints on the basis of their own protected classes,” said Ellwanger (pictured). “You could be a straight white male and it doesn’t mean you can’t be protected by Title IX.”
He said Title IX, as it’s interpreted today, protects from “anything that creates a hostile environment for a student on the basis of the student’s protected class; sex, gender, religion or sexual orientation fall under actionable claims of Title IX.”

Good on this teacher, and it needs to be done on every campus.
Diversity is the sledge hammer the communists have used to tear down every last vestige of Western Christendom.
“Good on this teacher, and it needs to be done on every campus.”
Professor is playing the “I say something, they will fire me and I will sue their pants off” card. Good for him.
Overload the system. Flood DIE offices with complaints.
If wypipo are so horrible awful bad and terrible, why is net migration never away from wypipo and to the paradises distributed everywhere around the globe?
Good idea, they should have been doing this all along. Fight fire with fire.
As “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” becomes an irrefutable phrase, let’s remember it is a precursor to enabling squaller and violence. At least that is true in places like Seattle, Portlnd, Eugene, Sa Francisco, and Los Angeles.
I was regularly criticized for being a Christian way back when I was in Harvard grad school! So this is nothing new!
But what is new is that gaysbians, trans, and other kooks get special immunities!! (In fact, no one heard that there was such a thing as “trans” until relatively recently!) This is WRONG!!!!
I have considered how to turn these rules against those who seek to impose them. Especially the “chosen pronoun” nonsense.
Consider that the benefit of a common language, including standard grammar, syntax and spelling, is to allow meaningful and efficient communication. Use this principle against those who seek to deconstruct the common language.
To wit: If you are a teacher and someone asks you what your pronouns are, respond with “superintendent”/”principal”. That way when others take with/about you, by their rules, they *must* address you as specified - e.g “Principal said this....” , “Superintendent did this....”. Similarly, if you are a business person, your pronouns might be “director”/”manager”, etc.
Doing this makes accurate and efficient communication for the chosen pronoun cult exceedingly difficult.
Give them what they want, and do it fully!
They’ll just say it’s impossible to discriminate against whites.
They say that already in a stupid government contractor training on critical race theory I had to go to.
I also learned it’s OK to hate Jews if you are Arab, black, gay, or basically anything but a white guy. Because Israel or something.
I had to go to this. I knew it was garbage when the trainer showed up late. Was fat and sloppy. Looked like a DMV lady. And wore a mask in a giant conference room.
Good idea! Turn it back on them.
Aside from turning the tables on the wokesters, I agree with you. The school will never attempt to fire him.
Definitely worth doing but don’t hold your breath for instant results. “Protected class” is inherently exclusionary, and the DEI crowd hasn’t the slightest intention of allowing equal protection to everyone. Social justice is tilting the playing field, not leveling it.
Oh, I like that!
Oh, I like that!
