Who's Sorry Now?
Peter Ratner, math teacher from Bellvue Community College. He says he apologizes and holds himself to a "higher standard". But, Dude. Your statement is totally condescending. WTF. Here "The Bellevue Community College math instructor who wrote a racially insensitive math question came forward during an emotional campus meeting Wednesday, apologizing for what he termed an "egregious mistake." "
Egregious mistake, allright. Here's the math problem he put forward: "The question began, "Condoleezza holds a watermelon just over the edge of the roof of the 300-foot Federal Building, and tosses it up with a velocity of 20 feet per second." It went on to ask when the watermelon would hit the ground, based on a formula provided." Jeez.
