Site itself seems fake to me, never seen it before, I think I agree with Smith, ambivalent on it all though, if I'm wrong I'm wrong.
Not having heard of something being all it takes to dismiss it as fake is a great way to paint yourself into a corner. The sources are provided and you can look stuff up yourself. https://www.tabroom.com/index/paradigm.mhtml?judge_person_id=114657
Fair enough and thanks, god it's cringe that a school would do that.
It's the site Bari Weiss founded after leaving the NYT.
Are there any other articles about this sort of thing not on the site? I guess I'm hoping it's fake this would happen in a school today.
