(Daily Independent) The Maricopa County Community College District has announced an investigation into Scottsdale Community College’s handling of quiz questions that were labeled discriminatory to the religion of Islam.
After a student brought the discriminatory quiz questions to the attention of school officials in late April, SCC’s reaction and answer to the issue is being looked at further by an independent investigation to consider the professor’s academic freedom.
In a May 1 statement posted to social media, SCC Interim President Chris Haines said school officials reviewed the three quiz questions and agreed with the student that the “content was inaccurate, inappropriate and not reflective of the inclusive nature of our college.”
