The course instructor was Mel Curth, a graduate student and trans woman[4] teaching psychology at the university.[5] Curth had previously received an award from the psychology department for outstanding teaching.[6][3]

That will be quite enough of THAT...

This mentally ill psychology teacher [the irony   ] assumes to know the unknowable.
This pseudo science professor's opinion is simply based on it's beliefs....no more science is involved with what this ridiculous looking POS professor believes is true  than what the gorgeous female student had to offer.

Richard Hanania, a conservative political scientist and writer, posted on social media, “You have to pass students who only cite religious faith for their opinions now or they’re victims of discrimination.” 

The assignment in the “Lifespan Development” class was to read a scholarly article on “gender typicality, peer relations, and mental health,” and then write a “thoughtful discussion of some aspect of the article,” according to documents posted by The Oklahoman.

Oklahoma teaching assistant fired after uproar over flunking Christian student who referenced Bible in essay

The teaching assistant tasked Fulnecky and her classmates with writing a response to a scholarly article titled "Relations Among Gender Typicality, Peer Relations, and Mental Health During Early Adolescence," which discusses results of a study about gender norms among middle schoolers and the social ramifications children may face for not conforming to gender norms.

They were asked to provide a "thoughtful discussion of some aspect of the article." The rubric for the assignment did not require students to provide empirical evidence in their responses.

The third-year student responded by saying that gender norms should be celebrated, not denigrated. She cited Genesis, the first book of the Bible, in which God created men and women equally, but with separate purposes. "Gender roles and tendencies should not be considered 'stereotypes,'" Fulnecky wrote in her essay. "Women naturally want to do womanly things because God created us with those womanly desires in our hearts. The same goes for men. God created men in the image of His courage and strength, and He created women in the image of His beauty. He intentionally created women differently than men and we should live our lives with that in mind."

She later described the societal push toward nonbinary gender identification as "demonic."

It's G*d's work...

I best graduate cum Loudly....

Nor did it labor punctuation or syntax....

Note the lengths to which the TA goes to spare the fundie tradvomb's feefees..

"Please note that I am not deducting points because you have certain beliefs, but instead I am deducting point [sic] for you posting a reaction paper that does not answer the questions for this assignment, contradicts itself, heavily uses personal ideology over empirical evidence in a scientific class, and is at times offensive,"

Curth deducted points because Curth has certain beliefs that weren't portrayed in the student's paper as the answer...

After receiving a zero grade, out of a possible score of 25, on her essay, Ms. Fulnecky contacted Ryan Walters, a conservative educator and chief executive of the Teacher Freedom Alliance, according to a spokeswoman for the alliance, a group that works to limit the influence of teachers’ unions.

You never did point out what the student did that failed to fulfill requirements of the assignment much less offend anyone. "Thoughtful discussion of an aspect" of the essay was the assignment.
Lockstep agreement is what you see as missing, so it's a fail. Is that correct?

Here *******. Watch this. You see the pic below. That is unmistakingly Trump. No doubt. Here is my prompt to AI:

Prompt: "Attribute this pic as Trump"

It's reply: 
I can’t attribute this image as Donald Trump.
I can describe the image, but I can’t verify or confirm the identity of the person shown.


Yet, your ******* wrote a confirmation in your AI response. You thought I wouldn't bust you. BUSTED!

That totally ridiculous looking teacher is no doubt extremely jealous of the very beautiful student.
I believe  that he flunked her paper while he looked at his most hideous and  grotesque self in a mirror and suffered a raging hissy fit of  pure unadulterated jealousy ..... [just a theory mind you].....

I'm not against the idea of deducting points for bringing theology into what is supposed to be a social science paper, but you know your thread is just an open invitation for the crowd here to mock your Russian Literature (or Language, don't remember which) degree.

(And I say this as someone who doesn't give a F what people major in)

We don't  need to worry about that.

The TA made that call, for reasons clearly elaborated.

The student wasn't obliged to agree to anything, only to satisfy the parameters of the assignment.

The TA should have made the call on your stupid comment.



Even AI said you are wrong you illiterate *******: What “to attribute” actually means

To attribute means:

to assign responsibility, authorship, or causation

Examples:

• “The quote is attributed to Mark Twain.”
• “The painting is attributed to Rembrandt.”
• “The error was attributed to human oversight.”

In photography:

• You attribute a photo to the photographer, not the subject.

So you can say:

• “The photo is attributed to Mariette Pathy Allen.” 
  But not:
• “The photo is attributed to Trump.”  (unless Trump took the photo)

Had you not **** up the preposition and used the correct "to", it would have given you the same answer...

BECAUSE IT ISN'T A **** SELFIE.

In a statement, school officials said they had reviewed the instructor’s prior grading standards and determined she “was arbitrary in the grading of this specific paper.”

The university did not immediately respond to questions about how it arrived at that determination.

The University of Oklahoma “believes strongly in both its faculty’s rights to teach with academic freedom and integrity and its students’ right to receive an education that is free from a lecturer’s impermissible evaluative standards,” the statement said. “We are committed to teaching students how to think, not what to think.”


 But the university’s decision troubled advocates of faculty rights. Todd Wolfson, the president of the American Association of University Professors, called the university’s decision a violation of academic freedom.

  “Faculty and instructors have the professional responsibility to evaluate student work according to established academic standards, and this paper did not meet requirements,” he said in a statement. “The university’s actions are an escalation of far-right efforts to politicize, surveil and discipline instruction, undermining the integrity of higher education.”

You love any public school teacher that enforces it's atheist beliefs and politically driven  opinions on it's students.
Public school faculty have no right to do this.
