hey so i read part of the student's essay and i want to add a few things:
it was a 0 out of 25 points. that's not even a huge deal.
she only wrote 650 words.
the girl didn't do the actual assignment; she just wrote what she felt like and submitted it.
the class was a PSYCHOLOGY course yet her essay was about her religious beliefs and provided no citations or psychological basis. she simply insisted her argument was true because the bible supposedly says so.
her entire essay is a mindless rant about how strict gender roles must be upheld and trans people are "demonic"
her writing—and i cannot stress this enough—is on par with that of a child who doesn't want to do an assignment. it's so bad i genuinely thought i was reading a satire article.
the student is a fucking college JUNIOR writing like a 10-year-old. she is also a psychology MAJOR who thinks everything in the bible is literal and that her religion is the only source anyone needs. this is someone who intends to go into mental health care. she is dangerously bigoted and ignorant, and her professor saw this and was punished for grading accordingly.
here's a line from her essay:
"Women naturally want to do womanly things because God created us with those womanly desires in our hearts. The same goes for men. God created men in the image of His courage and strength, and He created women in the image of His beauty."
here's her teacher's reasoning for the grade:
“[I am] not deducting points because you have certain beliefs" but rather because the paper "does not answer the questions for this assignment, contradicts itself, heavily uses personal ideology over empirical evidence in a scientific class and is at times offensive."
the girl is a hate-filled bigot. she is a white christian girl who is now being championed by fox news and turning point usa while her professor sits on fucking forced leave. this is disgusting.
important edit: i have just learned the professor is trans. this hateful brat is actively trying to destroy a trans person's life.
