Metro State Prof Investigated For Palin Assignment
cbs4denver.com - Metro State Professor Investigated For Palin Essay Assignment
Metro State College is investigating a professor who asked students to write an essay critical of Republican vice presidential candidate Gov. Sarah Palin. One student said the instructor singled out Republican students in the class and allowed others to ridicule them.
"I was shocked, I was holy cow, this is just an open door for him to discuss politics with us," said Jana Barber, a student in the class.
Barber shared the first class assignment with CBS4. Instructor Andrew Hallam asked students to write an essay to contradict what he called the 'fairy tale image of Palin' presented at the Republican National Convention.

As for the prof in question - what a douche - something tells me his tenure is on review now. |

"Those that can — do: those that can't — teach."
What we're witnessing is all the losers from the 60's & 70's who've schmoozed their way into tenure, are now being exposed as the frauds they've always been.
