Sounds like a class for people who hate murka.

I'd expect there to be a points value to each exercise. Choose not to do one, you lose those points. No reason to kick him outta class, just set him up for a C+

if i demanded my son receive c+ grades in all the classes he chose not to fully participate in, at least he'd be an average student. we should be setting the bar higher, not making the bar fluid.

i used to skip college assignments when the point value was low and i knew it would take too much time.

exactly! the class wasn't worth it for him, obviously.

a suspension is harsh. just set him up to do poorly and maybe he'll drop out. that's what making him lose points for refusing to stomp all over jesus does, without being a ####### about it.

we don't know exactly what the details are of "refused to participate". maybe he derailed the whole class. who knows..

so one student refusing to stomp on a piece of paper derails an entire class?

sounds like a poorly designed class.

if he threw a tantrum about it? the article isn't specific - that was my point.

How about if the exercise was to step on a picture of your child? Or mother?

Or how about a step on Allah exercise. What would the fallout be then?

One wonders how many Muslim would die or embassies destroyed if this had been Muhammad that you were made to defile.?

Many Muslims consider destruction any representation of Allah or the Prophet Mohammad offensive just as christians do in this case. Do you believe that in the next few weeks this professor will ask his students to write Allah or the Prophet Mohammad on a paper and defil it by walking on it. This is just another example of open season by the left on christians.

i know my response would be the same.

Why on earth would anyone be suspended from a university class? It was an exercise, not a graded test. I'm sure the student got the point of the exercise without having to do something that was offensive to him.

what bs.

[^_^ 5,021]

what bs.

i can't envision a university class that has people step on a piece of paper with the word mohammad written on it... can you?

You know you can't have a religion story without someone dragging Islam into it. Lost, been a while, guess the other guy who got banned from all the anti-islam hate speech and you can't exist in the same space.
