Ok, as a student of a public university in Ill. and I'm under the impression that my prof. signed a contract stating to remain neutral or at least not use our class as a political advertisement. Now as a political science student, I understand that everyone tends to have at least a slight bias on things and I feel that discussing and debating opposing view points is always a good thing as it allows us to learn. It is something I enjoy doing. BUT, I don't feel that my English class is the place for it and that the prof. has been completely unprofessional in going about it.
For instance, so far this semester we have spent at most 10 minutes on actual English. The rest of the time has been he bashing the opposing party. And by bashing I mean completely making things up. He will state that Candidate X is said he will *insert made up claim here* which will hurt everyone, whenever anyone disagrees they tend to get cutoff and told they are wrong. Despite him never being able to back up his statements. Also during our 15 minutes he took to get ready to start class he used it to take low blows at the opposing party.
I've also been continuously told illegal immigrants pay no taxes. Apparently me and the social security administration, who claims 75% of them do, are both wrong.
Am I stuck putting up with this for an entire semester? Because I am paying a lot of money for this so called "higher" education and I would like my professors to adhere by there standards or at the very least use accurate information in their views.
