"There is a growing debate over the firing of an NYU chemistry professor, who said the difficulty of his class ultimately led to his dismissal. Dr. Maitland Jones Jr. was fired by the university earlier in 2022. Jones said he was let go after students complained to the school that his organic chemistry class was too hard. More than 80 of his 350 students signed a petition claiming Jones was responsible for their failing grades. On Tuesday, NYU released a statement saying in part that there were multiple student complaints about his dismissiveness, unresponsiveness, condescension and lack of transparency about grading." *** The largest online progressive news show in the world.
