Professor's Viewpoint questioned

I am writing in response to Associate Professor Brown's Viewpoint, published in yesterday's Daily ("Whose rights? Who's right?"). As faculty member, Mr. Brown is in an influential position to cultivate students' minds. He has every right to his personal beliefs, however bigoted they are, but he does not have the right to express them to the student body in a hateful manner. He has publicly stated that homosexuals are inferior to heterosexuals, repeating that gays live a "sinful life," and arguing with Biblical quotes that a bisexual woman should not be allowed a leadership position in a TCU-funded organization, solely on the basis of her sexuality. That one interpretation of the Bible should supercede a clear and fundamental civil rights issue is a ridiculous enough standpoint for an adult. But as a professor, Brown implies that a gay student would be discriminated against in his class and undermines the integrity of his job.
