State University was removed from teaching two classes after he showed a presentation slide that featured racial slurs against various ethnic identities.
“You have to mention the words in order to explain why they are racist and should not be used,” the professor told the San Diego newspaper. “Some students are confused about what counts as racism. And some are more concerned about being offended than learning about the logic and science of language.”
"Students are free, of course, to register criticisms of Corlett’s pedagogical methods, as Corlett undoubtedly recognizes," the letter says."But mere offense over a professor’s exercise of academic freedom falls far short of the threshold for disciplinary action."
