Two former professors are suing Southwestern College for retaliation after reporting racial discrimination.
Ratemyprofessors.com — a website where students can write public reviews of their professors — is full of complaints against Waddell, including racism.“She didn't even let me get a word in,” Azin said. “She said, ‘Listen, I know what this is about, and I'm going to tell you this right now. If you are going to be successful in private practice, gossip is only going to get you fired.”That remark from Honny scared Azin, she said.
Ramirez said Waddell commented: “‘Don’t you think you should be talking to them about eating tacos and burritos, instead?’”The students could confide, Azin said, in two professors: Linda Lukacs and Karen Kubischta. It describes professors speaking to students who have accents “painfully slow and loud”; a U.S.-born student copying an immigrant student’s work and receiving a much higher score; students unable to sleep or concentrate in class because of racist treatment.
The school pulled Lukacs off a class she had taught for a decade, he said, and replaced her with a younger, more inexperienced teacher.
