    I think this is a big case of news not showing whole or accurate picture. And unfortunately I think some of you jump onto it just as easily as a Liberal does about anti gun stuff.

    I actually had this guy. And I loved his class. (Yes a required.) He had a few times I'd want to yell at him. But he's not completely one sided and actually hates obama. Yes he was into some stuff we on this board wouldn't believe in. But his class had some of the best inter student debates. Stuff a real Liberal nazi of a teacher wouldn't have allowed. He brought in guest speakers like a pretty high ranking costco executive.

    So yes he's a liberal leaning teacher, no he doesn't force it on anyone. My friend (if he reads these boards anymore) could attest to some good examples of Liberal teachers @ front range who fail someone for leaning independant much less right.

    I had teachers that I could tell were flamming liberals, but kept it to themselves. I learned a lot in those classes because there was interesting discussion, without the agenda getting in the way.

    You should tell them (and the dean)... "I appreciate that you teach from a place of reason, rather than being an A$$hole like >this guy<"\

    ETA: I'm too old to give a Fv*k about what he could try to do... so when he gave this assignment, I'd tell him I'm walking out on 1st amendment issues... and walk right to the dean's office- and tell him why I expect expect a full credit and/or another professor for this course... and if he doesn't like it, all my funding is pulled...

    but Hell would freeze over before I'd enroll in Metro anyway... so they'll continue to indoctrinate the masses... I'm teaching my kids the attitude I've conveyed, and if it comes to it, I'll go talk to the dean on their behalf... so far it hasn't come up.

    Didn't you just write a paper for a class like this? Or what the article alleges this class is like?

    That class was bad, no two bones about it. But as far as reciting anti-American propaganda and listening to rhetoric about how socialism will help us march down Pennsylvania Avenue, I lucked out. I think I would probably lose it and be escorted from the classroom if I was subjected to that horseshit.

    That's why I paid the extra money to go to UCD!

    But seriously, if I had a professor like this, I would have stayed in the class just to argue with her all day.
    I don't make the rules. I just think them up and write them down.

    Theres the difference between you and lots of millenials. It seems a lot of kids don't want to leave the college life anymore.
