Keep in mind.......... this article is about the freakin' PRESIDENT OF THE DETROIT PUBLIC SCHOOL BOARD!
Mathis has succeeded over the years by never admitting defeat when he failed. Unable to meet academic requirements, he found ways around them.
After graduating from Southeastern High School with a D-plus average, he got into Wayne State University in a program for the academically unqualified. When he failed to pass an English language writing exam required for graduation, he sued, claiming the exam discriminated against African-Americans. When the exam was dropped, a decade later, he duly received his bachelor of science degree.
...some DPS board members continued to defend him. Reverend David Murray, who is 58, described the 56-year-old Mathis as "a young man," who is still learning basic rules of deportment.
"Like I say, it's not that uncommon for people to behave in that fashion," he said Monday, "especially if the person is coming on to them. In most workplaces, they tell you you shouldn't have any social carrying on in the workplace."
R U serious?
Hiring illiterate, masturbating, derelicts to run your school board?
Now That's "Progressive"!
