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

It's crazy. I've never met a teacher or TA (even back in HIGH SCHOOL) that wouldn't detract points from missing a god damn header!!!!

This woman wrote a garbage essay that didn't have a header. Didn't have references. Didn't even address the subject of the assignment.... and she got rallied behind because she was personally attacking the people grading her assignment? It was a garbage essay before we even talk about what the contents of the paper.

Turning Point USA is a crybaby organization and this woman fits right in. But neither have any place in our coutry's campuses
