Alabama Professor Forced To Take Leave Of Absence After Encouraging A Student Shotgunning A Beer In Class
The video above was posted by our viceroy at Alabama on September 3rd. In the video, you can hear the instructor of the class encouraging the individual who pulled the ungodly act of shotgunning a beer in a place where EDUCATION should be happening.
In most situations, the story would end there. That’s not what happened.
SOURCE-Another student in the IBA 455 class, Caitlan Mahoney, a senior majoring in public relations, said Strayer addressed the incident on Thursday, Sept. 5 after a classmate mentioned the video circulating online. According to Mahoney, Strayer claimed he didn’t know who the student in question was, nor did he realize what was happening until it was over.
The video shows a young man, who has been identified as T***** ******, a student at Illinois State University, shotgunning a beer over a trashcan in the back of the lecture-style room.
Hell of a trip from Illinois to Alabama just to shotgun a beer.
“You good?” an instructor said mid-lecture as the student pierced a can of Michelob Ultra.
“Oh yeah, keep going, you’re good,” Nappier said.
“Oh, cool. Thanks man, I appreciate it,” the instructor said.
Nappier then shotgunned the beer while the class applauded.
“I am impressed,” the instructor said. “I love it.”
This was the moment that got the instructor Strawyer in trouble.
Kristy Reynolds, the head of the marketing department, visited each section of Strayer’s classes to inform them he had taken a leave of absence and will not return this semester, but she was unable to provide further details. Diana Gomez is the temporary instructor for the global marketing course where the incident occurred.
This is the lamest thing of all time. You’re the University of Alabama, not Harvard. You should be encouraging your instructors to encourage students to shotgun beers in class. That would raise applicants to your school.
Starkey said Reynolds provided the same explanation and was unable to elaborate on the situation. According to Starkey, Reynolds also informed the students that the video had been sent to the “dean.” Starkey said he was unsure whether Reynolds meant the dean of the marketing department or the UA dean of students, who recently resigned.
You know what. This is a situation where I get to use my favorite quote in history.
Why am I using this? Because whoever snitched on Professor Strawyer is suspended from all tailgates and parties at the University of Alabama until further notice. That’s right. I’m suspending an Alabama student even though I don’t go to Alabama. Stand up for something, or fall for anything or whatever that quote is.
