At a recent event celebrating (?) diversity, the name of Trayvon Martin was invoked no less than five times, indicating that achievements in diversity would be taking second place to the favorite practice of harpooning the Great White Whale. While my previous posts have not been perfect, it was nonetheless disconcerting to see a host of misspellings and grammatical errors in the signage at the event--and this was a university setting.
The professoriat was at the forefront of the Trayvon parade, citing the need for justice. Justice is something with which the professoriat should have a much closer acquaintance--so that they may finally know justice.
In the Duke Lacrosse case, several years back, 87 professors with absolutely no grasp of the details or the facts all signed a letter condemning the team long before the players saw their own mugshots. "What does a social catastrophe look like?" the professoriat asked in the open letter.
A social catastrophe looks like a lynch mob committee of the professoriat--is this what they teach--in addition to misspelling and grammatical catastrophes?
A social catastrophe looks like a pack of greedy racial profiteers parachuting in to stoke the situation sure as second teeth for personal gain and group entitrlements.
Can anybody tell me what happened to the young lady who was involved with the Duke Lacrosse team? I wonder if she has been graduated by now thanks to that Jesse Jackson scholarship. Of course, the state investigators concluded she would make a very poor witness since she rarely resides on Planet Earth.
A social catastrophe looks like 26 process steps to fire a tenured professor even if he has traded grades for sex. Notice that when it comes to firing tenured professors, well.......we'll just take our sweet time--justice can certainly wait when it comes to important people like us. Everybody else?? Off with their heads -- immediately!!
