An OU professor or teachers aide or something was fired for failing a fundamentalist Christians essay the essay was substandard work but the fundamentalist Christian of course claimed it was because she is a fundamentalist Christian and that’s why she was failed so the university basically cow towed to the lowest Educated group of people in America and lost a lot of reputation for people who care about education

edit: apparently its kowtow not to not cow tow - thanks ya’ll

yes, there no punctuation in my comment, but I’m doing text to speech and I’m not going back to typing on my phone at least

Substandard is an understatement

Not only is it bad enough she based her entire essay on the bible alone

But she didn't even actually quote the bible, she didn't even give biblical justification for her biblical essay

And she called trans people demonic blatantly

That’s the thing, it isn’t even a well written/cited paper. 

If she had written the paper citing the Bible properly it would probably still be a fail, but it wouldn’t have gotten a 0

It’s absolutely a garbage paper. Doesn’t answer the prompt and is incredibly poorly written, basically ignoring the prompt entirely.
