Comments on: To clarify Professor Cravey's letter… http://crdaily.com/2009/04/to-clarify-professor-craveys-letter/ The blog of the monthly conservative journal of UNC-Chapel Hill Wed, 08 Feb 2012 05:33:43 +0000 hourly 1 By: bweynand http://crdaily.com/2009/04/to-clarify-professor-craveys-letter/comment-page-1/#comment-973 bweynand Thu, 23 Apr 2009 17:54:56 +0000 http://crdaily.com/?p=1839#comment-973 It is most definitely true. I'm not sure I have read a more unprofessional autobiography on a professor's personal website. Most professors describe their research interests in an objective manner which leads us to believe that there might actually be some redeeming thought to be gleaned from their topic of examination. Professor Cravey's reads like a contest to use as many liberal buzz words as possible, proving that, in fact, she does merely study radical liberal rhetoric disguised as geography. "I believe that theorizing society and social change can offer guidance about how social change occurs and how we can best live in the world and contribute to progressive social change." What did we learn from this sentence? It is most definitely true. I’m not sure I have read a more unprofessional autobiography on a professor’s personal website.

“I believe that theorizing society and social change can offer guidance about how social change occurs and how we can best live in the world and contribute to progressive social change.”

What did we learn from this sentence?

I was RIGHT next to her the whole time. I had no idea that she's a professor...I thought she was a raving street loon. I'm shocked to find out that some idiot gave her a PhD.
