CUNY profs: Teach vs. Don

A cadre of left-wing CUNY professors plans to throw out Monday’s lesson plans and spend the day bashing President Trump.

The leaders of CUNY’s education-workers union have declared a “May Day Moratorium” at the city’s taxpayer-funded university system in conjunction with the annual day of socialist protest.

A letter from the head of CUNY’s Professional Staff Congress urges fellow instructors to “teach resistance” by “integrating into our classes an examination of Trump’s policies as they are relevant to your subject, whether it be biology, finance, nursing or history.

“College faculty and staff are in a unique position to challenge a presidency that has defended ‘alternative facts,’ ” read the letter from PSC President Barbara Bowen.

CUNY political-science professor and City Councilman Joe Borelli (RStaten Island) expressed outrage at the plan, which he said “assumes all the students are liberal.”

Mayor de Blasio indicated support for the protest, saying: “In this political climate, it is more important than ever that our universities continue to be the home for open and honest intellectual conversations about the views on both sides of the aisle.”

When asked how “teaching resistance” to Trump represented views from both side of the isle, City Hall said: “The Trump administration’s policies toward working people and immigrants are uniquely extreme and out of touch with mainstream, civil discussion; scapegoating and vilifying whole groups of people has no place in our democracy.”

CUNY spokesman Frank Sobrino said: “We told the PSC that class time should be spent on relevant course material.”

During the school year that ended in June 2016, CUNY received $738.9 million — nearly 15 percent of its total revenues — in the form of federal grants.
