University Of Kentucky Suspends Professor For Telling Kid To Learn English

Tim Brown


The University of Kansas suspended a professor of electrical engineering and computer science from teaching a class when he told an international student who was using Google translate that he should "learn English."

Now, that just seems to be common sense, right?  If you are attending a school where English is the language being used to teach, then the student should know English, right?  Only if you are a sane person does this make sense.

The removal of Professor Gary Minden was reported by The College Fix.

Learning English might be a safety  issue. Things like Stop! Turn it off! Fire! etc., might be handy to know, and are most effectively communicated in English rather than in some indecipherable jibberjabber..
