#1 I showed up late to lots of classes. But had to turn in the work on time and pass the class. Being late isn't a demerit, not doing the work however is.

#2 What they are saying is that minority students are too inferior and stupid to be expected to be on time. And somehow that's not racist...

#3 The gentleman's About is impressive. He has definitely gone in for being judged on the content of his character, not the colour of his skin.

#4 Why not just give every "African-American" a BA together with birth certificate, and go back to teaching-teaching?

#7 A new faculty training program on “diversity” declares that the expectation of punctuality is racist, and not necessarily a sign of disrespect ~~or nonchalance~~ or indolence.

Appropriately corrected.

#8 The clock is a Euro-Asian artifact. To expect others to use it should be considered cultural appropriation. That is a bad thing as our betters tell us.

#9 Its ok, bullshit like this has its own blowbacks. "CP time" is a real thing, that THEY pay for it, one way or the other. I know for a fact that certain contract offers are internally discounted when the recipient becomes aware of the "makeup" of the one submitting the offer.

Call that what you will. I prefer to think of it as "situational awareness".
