TAs Fired for ???

As I see it, these two TAs were fired for doing precisely what they were trained to do: think critically and challenge existing hierarchical structures of power.

But, I leave it to you to read the story and come up with your own answer. If you're a graduate student, faculty member, WPA (writing program administrator), or planning to be any one of the above, you should definitely check this out: Inquiry or Indoctrination? And for some really good reading, check out the comments that follow the article. Ooh, especially the one about how colleges should stop using so many "graduate student field hands." Yes, that's the answer... because soooo many universities can afford to just let go of all their graduate student teachers. And sooo many tenured and tenure-track faculty are just dying to teach entry-level composition and writing courses!
