I am of the mind that schools and colleges of education should die screaming with a flaming stake in their collective hearts. They are the most useless of any higher education offering as well as the gateway for propaganda and indoctrination of those who teach our children.
Indiana University (IU) is sanctioning a professor after a civil rights investigation into complaints about comments disparaging white people, including fellow educators.
An investigation revealed School of Education assistant professor Marcus Croom created a “hostile educational environment” for white students after a former student filed a complaint with the university’s civil rights office, according to The Herald-Times. The student accused Croom of making several comments about not wanting to associate with white people and declaring “white teachers are white supremacists.”
But because it’s Indiana University, the home of the Kinsey Institute…
The professor now faces a “level one” sanction as a result of the investigation that, after several interviews with other students, concluded that the “preponderance of evidence” supported the complainant’s claims, The Herald-Times reported. Croom’s job or salary will not be affected by the punishment, but he will be required to attend trainings on “inclusive teaching practices” and “respectful engagement with students of all backgrounds.”
So essentially no punishment whatsoever because there’s no way that training on ‘inclusive teaching practices’ is going to cure this guy’s White Privilege TM. And he’s going to continue spewing his outright racism for decades.
Colleges of Education are a stain, IMO. They act as gatekeepers to the teaching profession and don’t teach any subject matter–that’s an afterthought. US education would be greatly improved if these went the way of the dodo.
