In the meantime, his case attracted widespread interest, as his story was broadcast by news organizations.ĭriscoll said the attention resulted in a “spate” of obscene language, threats and misinformation toward the school. Last week, Ingle said he was waiting on a ruling from the Academic Integrity Board. Ingle, a religious studies major, must complete the class to graduate. When he did not immediately agree, the Academic Integrity Board process was initiated, and Ingle was barred from attending class. The professor also demanded that Ingle make apologies to both her and others in the class. The following day, Ingle was handed a set of documents explaining he had acted disrespectfully in objection to class discussion by refusing to stop talking out of turn and speaking in angry outbursts. “She wasn’t too happy with me, though I had given sufficient time for the females in class to speak,” he said last week, referring to Downie. Ingle said he denied things like the gender-wage gap, white-male privilege and the idea that there are more than two genders. 28, Ingle attended a special topics in Christianity class, where his instructor, Alison Downie, showed a video of a transgender woman speaking about topics like sexism and white-male privilege.įollowing the video, the instructor invited only female students in the room to comment with stories about when they have been marginalized by men, Ingle said last week.Īccording to Ingle, he waited for 30 seconds to a minute with no woman in the room speaking out, so he decided to offer his opinions, disputing information presented in the class. “As a result of how things have played, I am afraid that the thoughtful, dispassionate review of the matter is impossible.” “As I see it, a more thoughtful application of the IUP way would have resulted in a reasonable resolution of the matter with significantly less anger and anxiety,” Driscoll said. Driscoll said rules prohibited school officials from doing the same, and Ingle’s choice to speak with reporters impeded the review process.
