Demand The Pennsylvania State University to dismiss Professor Christopher Cook
The Issue
Christopher Cook is a political science professor at the Pennsylvania State University. Recently, in one of his classes he gave an assignment asking students to write a paper explaining why the Taliban is NOT a terrorist organization. He stated that any attempt to avoid or argue this prompt will receive a falling grade. This is a definition a breach of academic freedom and we are here to demand the Pennsylvania State University to take punitive action against Professor Cook's unreasonable behavior.
