I'm guessing this was written by Stuart Campbell himself...or maybe his mommy.

Dear Moderator, 


Are comments posted by unnamed participants -- such as the ones below -- kosher here?

John Sakowicz said: “Stuart Campbell, a self-appointed "professor oof 
ethics", gets a 2.6 rating out of a possible 5.0 from his students at 
RateMyProfessors.com -- not even a passing grade.”

This comment explains why you are already a Kruger-Dunning cheerleader. 
First, Stuart did not appoint himself, the College did on the basis of 
his qualifications and merits.

Second, the Rate My Professor service uses a five point Likert scale on 
which a 2.5 is average and has nothing to do with the ABCDF grading 
scale. You could have easily looked this up. You know, institutions of 
higher learning, even Harvard, are not Lake Wobegon where all the 
professors are above average.

Third, Stuart’s performance on a student rating has nothing to do with 
his work at KZYX and, therefore, is a classic ad hominem logic fail. You 
have cited his teaching reviews in the past and even excerpted a 
negative portion of text to bolster your obsession. Trolls use this 
behavior and it is known as cherry picking. Your big fail in your cherry 
pick was that you didn’t read to bottom of the review where the student 
said that Stuarts class turned out to be one of the best. Shame on you. SM
