Iowa professor, Ellen Lewin, under fire for vulgar email telling college Republicans: 'F--- YOU!' R

[monmouth]

A liberal University of Iowa sex professor has a message for the school's conservatives: F--- YOU!

Professor Ellen Lewin said as much in a response to a mass email from a campus Republican group promoting "Conservative Coming Out Week."

In the email on Monday morning, the UI College Republicans called for conservatives in Iowa City to "come out of the closet" and promote right-wing values that week.

The events included a screening of the 2002 film "Journey's with George," in honor of George W. Bush, a "Red vs. Blue" kickball game and blood drive and an "Animal Rights BBQ."

5. "Coming out?" "Animal rights BBQ?"

Hate speech. And everyone knows it, too.

7. I'm just getting through right wing world on Stephanie Miller's show

And after listening to today's version if I had gotten an email like this from a local Republican my response would be a lot worse than what she said to these clowns.

9. Fuck you, Republicans

I started a petition, based upon PZ Myer's blog on Pharyngula, about this:

Yes, I am perfectly aware that her last name is LewiN, not LewiS. You can read my update at the top of the petition. Flog me, but don't let i stop you from signing the petition... if you want to... :D

And also, please don't let this first post formulate your opinion of me. I'm not a spammer. I just think this is important...

Thank you. :)

10. A discussion on the controversy:

Here’s my interview with Tim Hagle, the University of Iowa College Republicans faculty advisor, about Lewin’s “F— You, Republicans!” email response to the group’s invite for people to participate in “Conservative Coming Out Week,” and what it’s like being a conservative on a college campus.
