I grew up during a time where there was more respect and kids didnt put their feet up during class. Guess that doesnt matter anymore.

This is outrageous! And, this is a professor?

Was she asked to take them down and refused? Repeatedly? Did she disrute the class? I don't get it. Seems excessive...

My mother always taught me to act accordingly and be on my best behavior out in public

So any time a black person does something wrong, no matter what it is is the media going to say it’s racist. The students were not upset so there is more to this story. I’m guessing these were campus police and it’s their job to uphold rules.

very sad for her feet on seat the teacher needs a wake up call hatefull

Are these people scared to death or what? I mean really. She should have been charged with wasting resources for her prejudices. Enough is enough.

It looks like America will be the new Nazi Germany of the 2000's

See ABC report this is like more detail that you always leave out of your stories! What started this exchange between the professor and the student? There is no way anyone is going to do this simply because her foot was there, what did the student say? Etc..

Keep your damn feet on the floor where they should be. My hats off to the person who called authorities.

THAT LECTURER SHOULD BE THE ONE LEAVING W/POLICE. I'VE SEEN A LOT WORSE ON CAMPUS AND THAT LECTURER IS ONE OF THE WORSE. SURPRISED SHE ISN'T WEARING A WHITE SHEETYEP🤪

pray for that poor girl won't get shot to death

CNN NYTIMES WASHINGTONPOST MSNBC CBSNEWS FOXNEWS really! I worked as a law enforcement Officer for a University and seen students sitting in lecture halls any kind of way. Professor really don't give a damn. Long as the student is not wasting their time.

No need to investigate watch this video here the proof.

Terribly racist, unfathomable

7NY YOUR RACIST TO USE COLORS!

The teacher wasn’t in the wrong and she’ll keep her job. You’re late to this story. Local news already reported it. 🤠 Don’t put your feet on the desk, it wasn’t allowed in school in the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s & 2000’s and it’s no acceptable today (2018).

Was it about feet on the seat (ugh) or about race. That might be a better question. Who wants feet 🦶 up in a classroom? No one wants to be around that. Manners are SO difficult for some. I didn’t perceive this as a “black” issue. It’s across the board .

🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Don't you guys know there is University's police?

Once again, an example of police lacking common sense. They should have walked right back out after giving the “professor” a lecture about wasting their time and public resources.

Misleading! She was told she was kicked out of the class. 'Upon entering class I was told I needed to leave or would be escorted out by officers'. She was not escorted out for having feet on seat, but for not leaving when told. So, is professor in charge of classroom or student?

She didn’t break the law cops have no right to be there! Their job is to detain CRIMINALS. I hate that my taxes pay for this ridiculous waste of time.

Everybody shoulda put their feet on the seat at that moment.

I will withhold judgement until hearing BOTH sides of the story. Shame on ABC for not doing the same.

WTF is wrong with people (the lecturer)

This is not true is it? WTF!!!🤬

Put your damn feet down, already.

The comments AMAZE me. People really want to live in a country where now they call the police on you 4 putting your feet on a chair? Really? Well hell, get ready 4your taxes 2go sky high people because big brother will be out handing tickets left and right if you do anything

funder If I'd been there I would have told class to leave room w her! Then take video to Principal! How f'n disgusting! Cops should have told teacher she did nothing wrong, told student not to do that anymore & let her back in the room, but the humiliation! That poor thing!😿😾

and no outrage from the other students? there's more to this story and someone's not telling us.🕵🏾‍♂️

And?

Need to get them crusty ass feet off the seat,,,,,,lol

Wow if true, this teacher should be tossed out on her ass. If I am the student, I am getting an attorney and going after the teacher AND school. If you want to play with mud, be prepared to get dirty.

Attending a professor's lecture, should have some decorum?🙄🤔

If she hadn’t had her feet on the seat to begin with, none of that would’ve happened. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes

The good times we live in :)

What’s with the rest of these fucken people. I’m so tired of hearing about this kind of thing day after day.🍄🍄🍄sorry his a fucken animal and history going to make him and his family pay for what they are doing to the 🇺🇸

Wow. Way to be a racist, and waste the police officers’ time.

Either go there to learn or get the fuck out

Everyone saying 'there must be more to the story'...yeah, that's what the link is for, click it. If you do, you'll find out that this is pretty much the whole story. Also, as a former educator myself: no instructor worth a damn would ever care about feet on a seat.

Incredible! The police should have instead of getting involved in something so ridiculous have arrested the teacher for wasting police time!

Professor should be fined for a bogus 911 call (assuming that they called 911).

another race card by fake news...In a classroom environment, regardless of color students shouldn't have their feet up on the seat. Have respect for the teacher and following the rules is apart of education process...NO?

There’s more to the story, I’m sure. But more importantly - TAKE YO NASTY FEET OFF THE DAMN CHAIR! This isn’t your house!

There is probably more to this than being told but I didn’t think feet on a seat was a crime.

Calling the police for such an asinine reason, that lecturer should be charged for the cost of wasting the tax payers money!

Mainstream media calling out a white person again! These whiteys are so mean. This is why we need open borders so we can dilute them.

이렇게 경찰 대동까지 할 필요가?

Perhaps they were brand new desks and she was wearing steel-cleats with poop on them? Idk...

Let’s get both sides of the story

Fire that professor!

Typical. Can’t shut up, can’t do what they’re told.

To the Fake News industry everything is racist. So sad.

Now it's 'Learning while black'? Wtf is going on? Ridiculous

' TRUMPISM IS ALIVE AND WELL IN INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER LEARNING ACROSS THE UNITED STATES ! ' . . .

Why does race matter?

White Nationalist teacher thinks Skin Color is Disruptive would be a better headline

What color was the seat?

Lol...some Caucasians are losing their minds....especially the women....u do realize ur the 'minority' giving birth to the majority....Caucasian men.....hmmmmmm think about it...most of them have always put you all second...hmmmmmm think about it...

What are we doing?

Black people should be given 80% of the American land as compensation for slavery.

Free country UnitedStates

I am sure there more to this story. My college professors didn’t even took at anyone past 2nd row.

It is obviously edited down. Why else was she asked to leave? Being disrespectful not flllowing professors instructions. Why is it a black and white thing? You guys make EVERYTHING about race. Its disgusting.

There clearly isn’t a story here, so we are going to make one by interjecting race where it isn’t relevant

Betting had NOTHING to do with “black student” but merely on the fact that the professor asked her repeatedly to remove her feet to which she refused or did the “make me” statement. Professor did correct but is in a no win these days with rude idiots

A class full of students say nothing about it! Wow!

I hope she gets fired. You get paid to educated those students.

The video just so happens to start here?
