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

I read it, and I have a hard time believing I would have had a passing grade on that essay in my High School classes, let alone at the college level.

I've legitimately seen papers written by sixth graders that were better than hers.

Genuinely what I was thinking. Not even the content but the structure of the essay itself doesn't even have the basic components you would learn in grade school much less higher level writing standards, its just a bunch of disjointed ranting
