University imposes a one-year suspension on law professor over comments on race
Source: ABC News
The University of Pennsylvania law school says it is imposing a one-year suspension at half-pay and other sanctions along with a public reprimand on a tenured professor over her comments about race in recent years.
The university said Professor Amy Wax — who has questioned the academic performance of Black students, invited a white nationalist to speak to her class and suggested the country would be better off with less Asian immigration — will also lose her named chair and summer pay in perpetuity and must note in public appearances that she speaks for herself, not as a university or law school member. The university has not, however, fired her or stripped her of tenure.
Wax told the New York Sun after the announcement that she intends to stay at the school as a “conservative presence on campus.” She called allegations of mistreatment of students “totally bogus and made up" and said her treatment amounted to “performance art” highlighting that the administration “doesn’t want conservatives like me on campus.”
The university said in a notice posted in its almanac last week that a faculty hearing board concluded after a three-day hearing in May of last year that Wax had engaged in “flagrant unprofessional conduct," citing what it called “a history of making sweeping and derogatory generalizations about groups by race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and immigration status.” Wax was also accused of “breaching the requirement that student grades be kept private by publicly speaking about the grades of law students by race” making “discriminatory and disparaging statements," some in the classroom, "targeting specific racial, ethnic, and other groups with which many students identify.”

Who can claim responsibility for the creation of America. Has a view that there are " legacy" whites, like her, only 2nd generation but can claim the success of USA simply by being white. But of course 10 generation Black's can't. 
She is a trip.
