I also saw The Angry Professor.

I totally found video from the picket on Channel 69 News’ website. Hopefully the link works. Click here.

Not that this has anything to do with the class itself, but the KU administration is pissing me off. I found a quote by Mark Twain that says, “Patriotism is supporting your country all the time and your government when it deserves it.” The same thing is true about our sense of pride and loyalty toward our school. We should support our teachers all the time. The very foundation of any university is education. Our teachers are the ones who educate. They are the people that give us the gift of knowledge and allow us to grow as scholarly individuals. The administration's disregard for our faculty is an attack on the very institution that we, as students, have devoted our time, energy, and money in. So, should we be supporting our administration now? Do they deserve it? I say no!

I just thought I would vent to the 6 of you that actually read this blog. Maybe we could relate this to Rhetoric somehow.

The Angry Proffessor on TV

I was watching the 6 oclock news last night, and saw Dr. Mahoney in several camera shots, because the news crew was covering the impending strike at KU. When I saw his face on the screen, I called my daughter Cecelia over and said "hey, that's my profesor!" and my daughter said, "he looks really angry!" It was a sight to behold. Keep on fighting Dr. Mahoney!
