 School suggested students learn English, but suspended a prof after he told student the same thing

‘You can’t get more comfortable speaking English unless you, well, speak English’

A public university recently suspended a professor from teaching a course after he told a student that he should learn the English language, even though the school has encouraged students to learn English in the past.

The University of Kansas removed Gary Minden, a professor of electrical engineering and computer science, from teaching a class after he told an international student who was using Google Translate that the student should “learn English.”

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
More ridiculous dreck. How did the student expect to learn at a University here if they could not speak the language?

The suspending body should be flogged.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
