An accounting professor at UCLA said he filed a lawsuit against the school after it put him on leave and allegedly threatened to fire him for not grading Black student’s more leniently than their peers. "Recently, I was suspended from my job for refusing to treat my black students as lesser than their non-black peers," Gordon Klein wrote in an op-ed titled, "Why I Am Suing UCLA."The ordeal began, according to Klein, on June 2, 2020, eight days after George Floyd was killed in Minneapolis. A white student emailed Klein asking for a "no harm" final for Black students, meaning low grades would not be counted,

He was put on leave for his "racist" email to the student, where he had the nerve to actually quote Martin Luther King, a noted racist (apparently). The student was offended by this and spread it around to all the other "woke" activists on campus. Too bad there weren't any real students who were there to learn and believed in equality to stand up for him.

Professor Klein, blacks are dumb and stupid, so you gotta cut some slack when grading their arithmetic tests. ....I guess that's what it boils down to.

An educator that does not subscribe to the bigotry of low expectations based on skin color. Admirable quality, IMHO.

If I were a black student at UCLA, I would tell the white student to put a sock in it.

Giving a pass to ignorant, incompetent, low-lifes like Lloyd Austin because of their race, (Affirmative Action) is devastating in its effect. Look at the Military, its leadership is treasonous garbage! "Good order and discipline" has flown the coop. A good man is in jail for demanding accountability. I long for the days when Honor was a valued asset for an Officer.

UCLA thinks blacks are SO INFERIOR as to need a head start to accomplish what other races do?
Sounds kinda RACIST, dont it?

Isn't that another form of affirmative action?

Any honest, real teacher will tell you that, as a group, the blacks score lower than any of the other ethnic groups. Just look at all the state testing statistics, the numbers are right there.

This "lenient" grading practice fools nobody when the GIQ (graduate in question) enters the workplace. I'm sure we are all familiar with that scenario.

Speaking of Lloyd Austin, here is an interesting factoid. In the mid-80s, the Army's Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) instituted a remedial reading and writing course for officers who had graduated from HBCUs. That's right - already graduated. You, the taxpayer, were paying (again) for educating officers in basic communications skills, and look where we have ended up. We have Austin going around on his visits wearing both a mask and a shield, and have to suffer inarticulate boobs like Honore. Now this professor is trying to maintain standards in his course and is blasted for it. Outside of STEM, today's colleges are worthless diploma mills.
