College student alleges professor failed her for using the term ‘biological women’ #shorts

A sophomore at the University of Cincinnati claims that her professor gave her a zero on a college project for using the term “biological women.”

Olivia Krolczyk, 20, said the professor for her Women’s Gender Studies in Pop Culture class failed her for using the “exclusionary” term despite admitting that she submitted a “solid proposal,” the student told The Post.

The course instructed students to pick a topic related to feminism, with Krolczyk choosing to research the changes female athletes have experienced throughout history and the rights and opportunities they have been awarded and fought for in athletics.

Her project discussed things from the first woman to compete in the Olympic Games to the fight that female athletes like Riley Gaines are making for proposed changes to Title IX.

The chemistry major said her project ended by sharing how “these rights and opportunities are being threatened by allowing men to compete in women’s sports.”

Appeal it to the dean, and register a complaint against the teacher. I had to do that in grad school and won. Leave out emotions, and stick to your facts. Go to the highest level. Don't cave!

[DarrenHarrison]

Politically motivated marks are illegal and you should sue.

[nathanielalgernon]

Ask them to change the grade, and if they don't find a lawyer and sue them

[punishedmadotsuki]

The term biological women is actually arguably inclusive because it differentiates and opens the door that there are other categories of women

[NintendoFan]

I'm a UC grad and that makes me sick. Take it to the Dean of your College and threaten to sue if nothing's done in 48 hours.

You pay them to educate you, not indoctrinate and confuse you. Sue them until they bleed.

[markpaytes]

This happened at the University of Cincinnati and this professor should be fired. He need to quit accepting as a society this garbage

[JT-gnwh]

That professor got fired I hope, I live in the greater Cincinnati area, and around here the majority of people are still THE FREAK SHOW OUT OF THE MIDWEST 🇺🇸

Punished for trying to be intellectually honest and write the truth. Idiocracy has replaced meritocracy and all common sense.

[jenniferh.]

I don’t care what your opinion is, or your teacher’s, but there are plenty of research papers that use this terminology so your grade shouldn’t be affected for that reason alone.

[Archibald_von_Munch]

Don’t send you kids to public schools or public universities any longer. Also, same with many private ones.

[geoffkeil]

Sue them. You literally pay these people to educate you and provide you with qualifications ... if you do the work. If they're failing you over a difference of a opinion ... that's possibly grounds for a breach of contract.

[country_chic]

Your teacher should be ashamed of herself! I hope you can sue her!

[oneangrygoy]

Sue. For real. Take their job, and sue. This has gone to far.

[twistedmindssweettea]

Sue. Point blank period. Sue that specific teacher AND the school who keeps an a**hat like them in employment. You basically paid her paycheck with your tuition fees...she's not legally allowed to do that.

[Muchjoy..]

Sue the teacher and the school and the curriculum provider.

[nataniasbookclub]

Listen, I'm all for LGBTQ rights and think people should do whatever makes them happy. However, as someone in the biomed field, this is awful. There's obvious differences between biological women and trans women that need to be acknowledged, especially if the topic requires it. Politics have no play in this.

[nancycrabtree]

I’d be suing somebody. That is ridiculous!

[lindaprofitarealtor]

This is really disturbing and delusional! 🤮🙄

[bearhall]

Law suit. It's time to start suing these people for doing the opposite of what
you are paying them to do.
