abc11tv.com: N.C. State Distances Itself from Instructor
"North Carolina State University has distanced itself from comments made by an occasional instructor who recently said blacks must "exterminate white people off the face of the planet."
Kamau Kambon, an author who taught in N.C. State's Africana Studies program as recently as this past spring, made the comments Oct. 14 during a conference at Howard University in Washington, D.C., that was televised nationally by C-SPAN. "
The real question is how they hired someone like him in the first place even though it was part time "as needed" in the Department of Africana Studies. Is all of this really "with it" emphasis on special studies(black, women's, etc.) nothing more than a haven for people like him? What happened to Sociology, anthropology, history and the like? I guess "multiculturalism" and "diversity" just can't fit under the umbrella of real cirricula and they need special Departments. What does one do with a BA in "Africana Studies" anyway?
I have three degrees from NCSU and am deeply saddened and offended that a once fine University could stoop so low in its hiring and cirricula.
