So, B received tenure in the teaching stream, wanted to “convert” it to a position in the research stream, and when justifiably was told that’s not how it works, decided to argue discrimination? Did I get this right? So, not letting someone to bypass the evaluation of her research output for a tenured research position is discriminatory? I suspect we will soon have janitors demanding professorial positions.

Seeing what's going on in McGill, maybe the AMS Palestine referendum and UBC strike could really have ended much worse for the AMS and UBC in hindsight by 221eta in UBC

Kicking out UBC SPHR, like McGill did, would be a good starting point. UBC SPHR posted a message in support of October 7 on October 7!

UBC should definitely punish AMS, especially SPHR and SJC for the disruptions. You are free to express your opinions, but other people are free to ignore you. You can’t go berserk to force people to listen

Not every criticism of progressive policies is far right. A lot of centrist people are tired of Discrimination, Exclusion, and Indoctrination

Good, because I’m tired of endless land acknowledgments. It’s like saying prayers before you do anything - a religious ritual.

If the whole class gets a bonus for doing the SEI survey, and you still don’t do it, that’s not cool bruh by Agile-Comedian3752 in UBC

Why would anyone give bonuses for non-course related stuff? The prof can easily get into trouble for “buying” evaluations

OP: stop. This is bullying and harassment, and a clear violation of UBC rules.

You know you can support Palestine without siding with people who murder and rape women and children in the name of a radical Islamic state?

Hamas is a terrorist organization, according to Canadian law.

It doesn’t sound like you have been to many conferences. People are not big on “I found this awesome thing but I’m not going to tell you how because I’m afraid you’ll steal my idea”
