Always Unquestioning
and Always Unchallenging
So much was taken for granted in our society,
even by the highly educated, especially when
One such fellow* told me the other day, he
believed that “poor teachers ought to be fired.”
But I asked him: what was a "poor teacher”?
Was it someone who didn't get the PC
teacher-of-the-year award or
someone who dared go upright and
criticize his colleagues and administrators?
Was it someone who spoke rude truths in the
classroom and in so doing upset the coddled or
someone who actually taught students
to question and challenge their very university?
Or was it the ole you’ll know a “poor teacher”
The fellow, unsurprisingly, never did get back to me.
