An OU student says a failing grade on her essay citing the Bible violated her free speech rights. Instructors said the essay lacked empirical evidence.

This is a huge meltdown in conservative circles, and considering how spineless the OU administration is, they’ll probably end up nixing the professor. They are currently working on getting rid of the African American studies department as is.

Edit: absolutely bonkers

    This was the biggest failing of (at least) my generation (gen-x): we were only taught that we had a freedom of speech, but never taught that there still could be consequences.

    When the majority of examples of freedom of speech were about how we have to allow shit like Nazi marches on capitals because speech is so sacred then it certainly look like there aren’t any consequences.
