is suing your teacher legal?

I suppose suing your high school teacher is silly even if he/she
behaves in an obviously discriminatory and unfair manner.
However, you need good grades to get into good colleges,
so if you deserve a 90 not an 80, and complaints to the superiors
do no good, what recourse is left?
This is especially a problem in college where tuition costs thousands
of dollars. You deserve one grade but get a lower grade for various
reasons unrelated to your scholastic performance.
We all know teachers try as hard as possible to promote so-called
"minorities" at the expense of hard working whites. They grade on a "curve",
and do a bunch of other nonsense so as not to offend, downgrade, or leave
behind "minorities".
I had a teacher who flatly refused to give me credit for a correct answer, and
another who gave a 2nd mid-term exam as 27 out of 30 of his students failed
the 1st one.
So what is a good hard working stud like me to do?
PS: what do I do if companies specifically request Spanglish speakers and
minorities and refuse to hire whites? Ever seen EOE in job ads? EOE = no white
man wanted.

PC,
If you feel that your grades do not reflect your scholastic performance
and that the discrepancy is not based on other "legitimate" considerations
then raise this issue with your parents. Ask them to call the school and
discuss this with the administrators. Have them find out the appropriate way
to raise such questions. You should not try to handle this yourself. You
will likely antagonize the teacher (and probably the administrators). If
your parents have truly exhausted all avenues of appeal then they may wish
to discuss this with a lawyer but suing will be expensive.
Companies may discriminate in hiring as long as they do not discriminate
against a class for which discrimination is prohibited. In other words, if
you don't speak Spanglish you won't be hired. Race is a prohibited class. If
they refuse to hire you because of your race you may win a suit against the
company.
Good luck,
Dave M.

Most teachers are probably hard working people trying to do the right thing.
But I had a couple that tried to shove their stupid liberal agenda's down
the throat of their captive audiences (their classes). Too often you have
to pretend you agree with them to make it through the class with a decent
grade. I wish now I had made an issue of it with my parents (who didn't
even know about the problem), and taken the teachers to task with the school
administration. Teachers note: Teach the facts, allow different points of
view to be expressed, don't tie grades to the whether a student agrees with
you or not, and don't try to rewrite history based on your own twisted
imaginations.

What you "think" you deserve is not your option.
If you were graded on a presentation, the grade you get is purely a
judgement call.
Later on in life you will come to understand that tests are a part of life.
Guess what? A person who passed the test with 100% and the person who passed
the test just barely, get the same license.
An attorney who passes the bar with the minimum requirements is still a
licensed attorney.
If a great majority of people fail to pass a test, it is not necessarily
their fault, but perhaps the fault of the test writer.
Years ago, when a diesel mechanic's test was given, only two people out of
thousands passed the test so I have been told.
The test was found to be in error.
An FCC licensing test was taken by a person I know. The tester said he got
all the answers correct except for one.
"No sir I did not. That question is invalid for the answers given."
They rewrote the question.
Even though he would have gotten the same license without arguing the point.
Today you take a test and the passing grade required is 75. You get 74.
The following week the same test is issued with a passing grade of 70.
Can you sue? No.
Last week you got a speeding ticket for being 5 mph over. This week the
speed limit is raised 10mph.
Do you have to pay the fine? Yes.
FYI, if an employer is truly EOE, then he damn well better hire any race or
ethnic background who is qualified or he could be slapped with some hefty
fines.
As the saying goes, "this ain't burger king and you don't get it your way".
