An instructor at the University of Oklahoma has been placed on leave after a student complained that she received a failing grade on a paper that cited the Bible to assert that the “belief in multiple genders” was “demonic.”
Samantha Fulnecky, 20, filed a complaint with the administration, the latest flashpoint in the ongoing debate over academic freedom on college campuses amid Donald Trump’s push to end diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, and restrict how campuses discuss issues of race, gender and sexuality.
Fulnecky wrote that she was frustrated by the premise of the article because she doesn’t believe that there are more than two genders based on her understanding of the Bible, according to a copy of her essay provided to The Oklahoman.
After reading her paper I counted only 3 sentences that seem to directly address the article it's supposed to be a response to. And those sentences are fluffy filler like stating the article was "thought provoking." The rest of the 2 pages is a full on religion paper. There was easily a way to get her point across about disagreeing with the premise while still actually addressing what the article stated.
I'm not claiming to be some amazing writer but that reads like something I would have thrown together in high school when I procrastinated and only had 10 minutes before the assignment was due. Just yikes. I feel dumber for having read that.
