Back in 1990 or so I began attending Hunter College inNYC in pursuit of a Master’s degree in order to maintain my NYC teaching license. In the first session of a course on communications the professor gave out a text written by Antonio Gramsci, noted Marxist. He then proceeded to inform us (standing there in his neatly ironed guayabera shirt) that class would be ending early as he was to have the honor of presenting Daniel Ortega with some sort of an award at a school-sponsored event). That was the only session of the course I attended, withdrawing from the school shortly after.

Never got a Masters (graduate schools are full of despotic leftists—on a subsequent attempt to obtain a Masters, the small minded feminist tried to run roughshod over me telling me I would have to take some undergrad courses to prove I could handle advanced graduate studies), lost my teaching credentials for NYC (moved on to NJ where a Masters was not required).

Wow! My thing in the mid-80s happened at Hunter College too! Except, as I mentioned earlier, it was an American Studies teacher. However, I suppose it could be the same guy. Can't recall his name right now, but might recognize it if I saw it again.
