Another case of...so what do you think?
An Oakland University student has faculty staff deciding if his ‘Hot For Teacher’ essay, based on the 1984 Van Halen hit of the same name, is an example of intimidating behavior, or an example of a student following instructions. Joseph Corlett, a 56-year-old student from Orion Township, Mich. has been suspended for a journal he turned in to his Advanced Critical Writing instructor, detailing how attractive he found her.
“I will not apologize for what I wrote and I will not apologize for making a good faith effort at doing my assignment,” Corlett says in the video below, courtesy of the Oakland Press. He tells the newspaper that he’d turned in a number of papers with sexual content previously, and received high marks from the woman he refers to as “My Ginger.”
“She walks in, and I say to myself, ‘Drop, mother (expletive), drop.’ Christ, I’ll never learn a thing. Tall, blond, stacked, skirt, heels, fingernails, smart, articulate, smile. I’m toast, but I stay,” Corlett wrote in the offending document. Van Halen’s message was simpler, but equally blunt.
After a meeting with the Dean, and a hearing in front of University administrators, professors and two students, he was suspended for three semesters and faces arrest for criminal trespass if he steps onto the campus.
