Internet Lawyers -- Not Just for Publishers Anymore
A Dartmouth professor has decided to sue her students (with some faculty thrown in) for discrimination. Supposedly, "discrimination" now entails students disagreeing with you. Who knew?


(If you don't want to wade through all that, there are also summaries at Gawker and IvyGate.)

I teach English, and my most useful teaching phrase is "Okay, yes, that's another way of looking at it." And then I ask the student (nicely) how s/he came to that conclusion.

I've always been awed by professors who can do that. Many's the time I've wanted to take a student by the shoulders and shake the crap out of them, and I'm just another student.
