Quote: I'm Not Mister Mxypltk said: My friend did poorly in the class, but then again he did poorly in most classes.
...blunting any argument about this prof discriminating against your Conservative friend.
Quote: Though the people I mentioned often complained about the teacher, I don't know if anyone had any problems because of their political stance. But still, l what the teacher said shows a clear bias a teacher shouldn't have.
It doesn't show a clear bias. It shows an expression of an opinion. If there's no clear evidence that shows that Conservative students did poorly while Liberals did well in the class...there's no case. This guy is not the first, nor the last, opinionated professor.
I didn't say it didn't happen: in fact, I think it probably did. But I don't know for sure. The papers we had to turn in for that class were mostly reflections on what he talked about in class, that being globalisation, imperialism, etc. I had no problem expanding on his thoughts cause I agree with most of what he said, but I can see how the papers would have been tremendously more difficult for a conservative, since they would have debate what the professor said (something people rarely did in class, this guy was a monster debating), and if their arguments weren't up to his I'm assuming they would have got a lousy grade.
