Jason Arday is the youngest Black professor in Cambridge’s history – and now rightwing newspapers are trying to smear him with untrue accusations of plagiarism.

Nothing but coincidence. Happens all the time.

Oh, he went with Jason Arday. I know him better as Lamar Latrell from “Revenge of the Nerds.” His flexible javelin invention was genius.

It’s not a smear if it’s true. And she looks exactly like what you would expect, complete with the bird hands and smart glasses. OTOH, what the hell does he teach that has any relevance or practical applications in the real world? Not like he teaches engineering. People that attend his classes are already drunk on the Kool Aid.
Dude, he teaches the ‘sociology of education’…whatever the heck that is.
They didn’t teach me that subject at my learing center.
Tolkien, Lewis, et al, would not have an Inkling understanding of this dreadlocked dude.

Let me guess … in his Sociology of Education class … 90% of your grade will be based on your understanding of all the “white” topics that shouldn’t be taught to POC?

I have a step-grandson who graduated from St. Mary’s University with a degree in sociology. He works at an electronics retail outlet in Hamilton, ON.
I had one sociology class, I took it to meet girls. My own brand of sociology of education, I guess. Nobody goes to these classes to learn anything, just get the credits. As long as this is understood by all, the scam continues. Anyways the prof was 5 foot nothing of beard, hippy nerves and sinew, chain-smoked Gitanes (without filter). Screwed up weirdo hated his dad because he was upset sonny had gotten kicked out of 2 universities. We had to buy his book and I guess that’s how you passed.
Oh, I know what “Sociology of Education” is:
(AI version from Gemini AI): The sociology of education is the study of how social institutions, forces, and cultural patterns shape educational systems and individual learning outcomes, focusing on structural functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism. It examines how schools operate as social spaces rather than just neutral centers of learning.
(Orson version): “Sociology of Education” is a rationalization and excuse ridden construct presented to explain why the pure merit system of school acceptance consistently favors a majority of Caucasian and Asian applicants. It doesn’t take into consideration the goals or preparation and discipline of those potential students. It does not take into consideration the inherent intelligence of the applicant or past behavioral performance. Instead, it focuses squarely on how much melanin content exists in the make up of their dermal skin layers. In other words, “Sociology of Education” is another made up term reflective of Indentity Politics.
(Note: my definition is my own, and I did not steal anyone else’s writings without attribution. I cannot speak on behalf of Gemini AI) 🙂
I already learned something today: structural functionalism & symbolic interactionism. Two more ways to spell horse shit.
I was thinking “that’s not so bad.” It’s all the same bullshit, that’s why it sounds the same. referencing the same guys. Gonna need more than that.

Plagiarizing like the pic shows,for a so-called university professor, is obscene. Frauds like this guy should be kicked out on his ear. I write this as a retired academic.
It’s got the same damn unnecessary comma at the start of the above passage. It’s literal copy-paste.
True but accurate.
