Last month, I wrote about a University of Oklahoma teaching assistant who was put on administrative leave for giving a student a zero on a psychology assignment.

The student, Samantha Fulnecky, turned in a biblically inflected rant that did not appear to be college-level work. When efforts to get the teaching assistant, Mel Curth, to immediately change the grade did not succeed, Fulnecky contacted the president of the university; the governor of Oklahoma; a conservative, anti-union organization; and the press to complain that she was a victim of religious discrimination.

I have an update for you, and it’s not good.........
