Comments below are from an email from a student for whom I’ve filed a complaint with the Faculty-Student Disciplinary Board for suspected cheating. I filed a second complaint with the College Behavioral Response Team for shouting and cursing and demanding, in an abusive manner, for an A in a class where the student seemed to be doing passing work.
The student believe that being abusive would improve chances for an A in the course. The student’s sophistry (revealed in comments) is not unusual nor was the student’s irrational behavior. Years ago, I developed a protocol for dealing with students who cheated because of Colleagues who inspired and supported students to cheat. More about this later.

The House Republicans’ Spending Reduction Act of 2012 Will Hurt Middle Class Families
The House Republicans introduced a bill last night, The Spending Reduction Act of 2012, that would negatively impact the American people in several ways.
I’ve been spending so much time “studying” facebook that I’ve neglected this blog. That’s all about to change even though the first few steps can be measured in picas.

According to the minutes for the November D:F/M faculty meeting, D:F/M Chair Jay Roman and Colleagues Bob Stanley and Karen Hunter (right now, I regard Colleague Hunter as a sort of overpaid journalistic diletante with a scurrilous reputation for making despicable comments about atheists) and others whose names were not in the minutes, were distressed that Colleague Parisi was being “singled” out for his comments supporting news censorship of the WORD.

Colleague Peter Paris, chief chaperone for the James Aronson Award for Social Justice Journalism, said at a faculty meeting of not long ago that he supported news censorship and that he supported censorship of the WORD. James Arson must be turning over in his grave because of the hypocritical nature of someone who has been passing himself off as a supporter of high journalistic principles.
Thus, a boycott is in the works. I plan to tell all my students: Boycott. Boycott Boycott.
More later.

For weeks and weeks, I had been planning to complete my “D:F/M Mob Does a Bronx Cheer” and put off writing about a number of topics. Well, time passed, obviously, and here I am in Charlotte at the Democratic National Convention and need to blog and write and …
So, I will have to re-publish the earlier “D:F/M Mob Does a Bronx Cheer” and then complete the project in the next few weeks.
