VICTORY: USC dismissed charges against professor
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лип 2024
- In late June, USC dismissed charges against a professor who was filmed telling a group of protesters last fall, “Hamas are murderers. That’s all they are. Every one should be killed, and I hope they all are.”
Following the on-campus exchange last November, students launched an online petition and filed formal complaints calling for Prof. John Strauss's termination, accusing him of discrimination, harassment, and fostering an unsafe environment.
USC spent 7 months “investigating” the 2-minute exchange caught on film and finally determined Strauss did not engage in discrimination or harassment, and his conduct did not create a hostile environment.
USC’s policies promise to protect faculty speech from institutional censorship or discipline - even when others disagree or feel offended. But for Prof. Strauss, voicing his opinion got him a 1mo. campus ban and a 7mo. investigation.
While we’re thrilled to learn Prof. Strauss won’t face additional sanctions for his speech, it’s important to remember that a 7-month investigation based on clearly protected political speech is enough to chill speech for both Strauss and the larger USC community.
Colleges and universities must strive to be places of free inquiry, open dialogue, and rigorous debate. When Strauss directly engaged with protesters sharing a message he disagreed with, he was embodying - not undermining - that goal.
SUE the College!
I hope he sues the crap out of USC.
I believe if it doesn't piss someone off, it's not free speech.
Do not send your kids to college
I just shows you how woke our country, and universities have become...
time to sue USC and the groups that posted the false videos for slander and punitive damages!!
But feelings the feelings police came but they couldn't hold
Well it sounds like USC is hellish from all thw complaint videos about the college
Thankfully they let him back, the trend seems to be that they just take the opportunity to get rid of you, like "well we can't have someone with your reputation work for us. . Even if it is a reputation that we helped to create and could squash with a public statement pointing towards the original videos".
Man looks like the next Clark Kent
There are legitimate and messy conflicts of law on these issues, unrelated to "woke" BS some are suggesting.
Social or economic support for gen-cide, Apartheid, and certain other ICC/ICJ major crimes, have broad conspiracy and expressly void immunity provisions.
That can mean that countries claiming legal entitlement to perpetrate such crimes, may be doing so with void or illicit legal basis, or at least have a conflict of law that's hard to resolve.
The same applies to the ethical notions of free expression as part of academic debate and discussion, that are often not well distinguished from schools being used more like political action committees, than educational entities. That conflict is especially connected to things like pronoun or gender not rights, but frauds, and bullying or privacy violations against others.
FACTOID
Nobody go to USC
Would he ever say the same for the terrorist state of Israel
Truth hurts, abdul.
As a college professor, I cringe every time I hear FIRE speaking for us.
Yet here you are. Bit maso huh?
@@LernestW Title got me. Thought it was something important. Didn’t realize it was some FIRE nonsense.
FIRE historically has been a good organization. Some of the hyper-simplified half truth dogma peddling videos recently have been profoundly disappointing, or worse.
@@lokiva8540 They’ve completely misrepresented and sensationalized instances in my district. One of the teachers they are backing said he can’t say the names of white scientists in his class. They’re absurd.
