Pressuring professors to offer extra credit to students who attend a Democratic rally. Wsbtv. Stacy Abrams and her supporters are pressuring students.

extra credit was offered for an event that HAPPENED to be democratic that was to be held at the school.

A colleague 'pressured' her. I guess peer pressure doesn't end once one has a career.

Nothing in that WSB-TV report says that Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams is pressuring students.

From what the news says the pressure was happening to everyone at the school. Ms Allen said she wants to clear things up and she is a Republican. It's clear how democrats are getting their numbers in these polls. You need to be a Democrat to have your job and to get a good grade at these schools. Creating more undercover conservatives.

There would be no legal way for employers or professors to monitor a persons political registration, so the claim makes little sense.

I also see nothing from Ms Allen saying anything about the whole school being pressured. From what I did read, she said 'a colleague' talked her into it, only a colleague.

I'm sure ms Allen wasn't the only Republican who was made to believe it would be better for her job to encourage students to be democrats. It didn't make the news because ms Allen was the only one being pressured.
Just another one of the schemes that DEMS came up with. I wonder how much $$ the schools received to force students to become young educated democratic supporters.

nothing supports that at all. The school was having an event. some teachers encouraged students to attend the event at THEIR school. No one was encouraged to 'be democrat'. ...lol

the problem was that it was a political event, and that the teacher did not offer a credit for students attending ANY (political) school event, instead of any specific (political) one.

The students were told that would recieve extra credit for attending Stacy Abrams event. Her opponent wasn't mention on the news at all.

You are reading into that news report things that aren't there.

NO I'M NOT . What was the purpose of the news report? That professors are trying to get kids to be more political? NO. The news was clear that people who worked and attended were being pressured to attend or give extra credit to attend Stacy Abrams rallies.

One professor claims that another professor pressured her to get her students to attend a political event. You extrapolated that claim into an attack on the entire university as well as an attack on a gubernatorial candidate.

Exactly.

One more time. Professors were pressured into giving extra credit to students to attend Stacy Abrams rally. Students were pressured because of wanting a better grade to attend Stacy Abrams rally. Nothing about a Republican rally was mention because extra credit wasn't offered to republicans.

This is how polls show dems leading. But they can't follow them into the voting booth so republicans win.

keep saying it with no evidence. Here is what the professor in question ACTUALLY said in an 'exclusive' interview (meaning the only one she gave)

REGARDING THE RALLY:

Allen told Winne that the public has been left with a false image of her as a left-wing academic, largely because of a statement the university put out about her and a controversy involving a rally on campus for Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams and U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

“I lean more towards the right. I am not a Stacey Abrams supporter,” Allen told Winne.

REGARDING WHO PRESSURED HER

Allen said a colleague repeatedly pressured her to offer extra credit to her students if they attended the rally. She finally gave in and sent an email that said in part: They would like a really big turnout and "to help out" she was offering extra credit.

The associate professor said her email was poorly worded and she meant to suggest the student organization sponsoring the event wanted a big turnout, not the Abrams' camp.

l free to post what youa re referring to with the above claims and maybe clear up the confusion.

Nowhere in the news report is there mention of Stacy Abrams pressuring anyone.

The OP has read into the news report something that isn't there.

Perhaps this topic is just Democrat-gubernatorial-candidate hate.

Then you tell us what the mention of Stacy Abrams in the news report was about. I'll wait.

The evidence was the news report. Ms Allen said she was being pressured to offer extra credit to student who attend Stacy Abrams rally. She said at first she didn't but finally gave in. She said she is a Republican. Student were mad that they were only offered extra credit if it was a democratic event. They blamed ms Allen for trying to force them to be democrats. She was trying to clear things up that it wasn't her idea. She made it clear she is a Republican.

People with good reading comprehension can figure that out.
Abrams was at an event that students attended.
The news report says nothing about her pressuring anyone.
So, why start a topic to express Abrams hate?

It was a news report. It said professors and students were being pressured. Stop drinking the liberal coolaid. The young educated students decided to fight back against the liberal bullying. Ms Allen was caught in the cross fire because she passed on the pressure she had received. This has definitely hurt Stacy Abrams campaign.

Too bad there is no way to verify the claim that such a report exists.


Ms. Allen herself said NOTHING except that a colleague pressured her to have student attend the event on college campus. The rest is being read into and added to what she actually said.

Did somebody mention kool aid? I'm thirsty and I've never tried it.
