    Writing Professor: Grading Based On Quality Is Racist

    Authored by Jon Street and Ronb Shimshock via Campus Reform,

    American University in Washington, D.C. is hosting an event on Feb. 1 on "antiracist" grading with a professor who serves as director of a writing center which argues that American grammar is a "racist," "unjust language structure."

    Take that you grammar nazis should have an exclamation point at the end.

    ex·cla·ma·tion point
    noun
    a punctuation mark (!) indicating an exclamation.

    And that is exactly what is wrong with the "current thinking" (an oxymoron if one ever existed) on education.

    I love this:
    “At the end of the semester, if the student completed the specific work they said they would, at the satisfactory level, they receive the grade they planned to receive,” ...

    I wish it worked that way with pay for work. I'd be retired.

    Any professor teaching “writing”, “composition”, or “English”, ought to be ashamed of any effort to downplay the importance of grammar to the craft.
