Tenured Professor Fired (Black Conservative)
The National Association of Scholars has issued a news release calling for protests against the dismissal of Professor Jean R. Cobbs, a tenured professor of Sociology at Virginia State University (VSU). Cobbs has worked at VSU for thirty-three years and is a former department chair. Based on the available evidence, it seems that her only offense is that she is a black conservative in a politically correct department.
