Diver$ity & Inclu$ion at UCSD
Striking students demand “equal pay for equal work” following former prof’s TikTok
Incidentally, the cat is also named Professor Purrity.
In a TikTok video that recently went viral after being featured on the LibsOfTikTok social media channel, former UCSD instructor Dr. Chandler Purrity, announced that, in an effort to “decolonize” her classroom, she gave automatic As to students who attended her class, did not give homework, and further, claimed that “my students and I have equal part when it comes to bringing information to the table. We all sit together and share.” Purrity has left UCSD since making the video, but her message has resonated with those she left behind, particularly in light of the ongoing strike among the school’s cannon-fodder grad students. “If the professor and the students have equal part in the process, shouldn’t they be compensated equally?” asked Sandra Grievance, a graduate student in Oppressed Populations the university. “And if this isn’t just an educational quirk, but a genuine attempt at decolonization, then shouldn’t a school that proclaims in its Twitter bio, ‘Our most cherished tradition is challenging tradition’ be following suit? Or is the number 29 university in the world more interested in money than justice?”
