Jodi Rives Meier; teaching vets is hard
Our buddy, Nickie, sent us a link on Facebook about this “teacher” Jodi Rives Meier, a part-time Communication instructor at Butte College’s Chico, California campus, who wrote this about her students who are vets on Facebook;
There are reasons recruiters draw heavily from undereducated populations–two of them being they are often desperate and that uninformed folks ask fewer questions. Students with poor academic performance are almost universally encouraged to go into the military and, lord knows, their skills do not improve while in the service.
I suspect that if she was a conservative and wrote that about any other group of Americans, the Left would be crawling up her ass with a microscope. And a woman like her, a liberal, would be leading the charge. But she’s not a conservative and she’s talking about veterans, one of those unpopular species of humans, so she gets all butt hurt when the media shows up at her door without warning. She writes on her Facebook page;
So, it turns out, if you post a MILLION times about social causes–suicide prevention, mental health awareness, LGBT+ issues, rape culture, fiscal meltdowns, local theater–no one in the media could give a shit. But, post about the military–and get a few boys with hurt feewings–and Jerry Olenyn from whatever channel shows up on your doorstep pushing for a response on video for the “lead story at 6:30.” Which you’ve heard nothing about. And when you say you feel uncomfortable having a news reporter “ambush” you at your home–where he is uninvited and is not a public place–when you are in your pajamas on your day off, he gets a little testy about being offended at your attack on him. And then the neighbors call the police. And then he tries to make the police call part of the story. And then you are just sick to damn death with all the bullshit. So, watch it at 6:30, I guess.
You don’t have to wait until 6:30, you can see the video at this link. She tells the interviewer with an analogy about rotten apples, that there’s something wrong with the barrel.
First of all, I’m not surprised that her students who are veterans are having a rough time in her classes. Many of them just came back from a war, about which she knows nothing. Adjusting to a classroom after that experience might be tough. Apparently, instead of trying to help those students, she’d rather chastise the entire group. If veterans were a race, I’d say she’s a racist, but she’s just a bigoted turd.
In an interview Rives said she stands by her posts adding that military personnel are being ill-served in preparing for civilian life.
“I can’t show specific student work. But if I were able to do that, which I would not because it would violate their privacy … clearly, you would be able to see that these are people struggling with academic skills,” Rives said.
In response to another person’s post, Rives discusses “military guys” having a large pool of people to rape, a comment she defended.
“It’s not just the case of one or two incidents,” Rives said. “How many apples have to be bad before we suspect that the barrel has problems?”
Yeah, we’re all stupid and we joined the military so we could rape people. This little bigot has no place in civil society. Maybe it’s not “the barrel” that’s the problem, Maybe it’s Jodi Rives Meier. After all students are only as good as their teacher.
As @Yes, Nick Searcy! would say, she’s also fat.

Finny, I got my College Degree as a newly returned Combat Veteran, and finished it in Iraq, and the only people that had trouble dealing with me in college, were the college employees. One thought it would be funny to pop a balloon right behind my head my first week on campus, she got fired, the Registrar told me I did not qualify for Veterans Educational Benefits because it said “Reservist” on my DD-214… she quit (I was the first Combat Vet the campus played host to, they had some adjusting of shot groups to do) and it was just fascinating, the level of ignorance, damn near bordering on mental retardation, that most in academia have toward Veterans today. These retards, yes, professors are retards too, still labor under 1960’s counterculture references of Veterans, and even when faced with actual Veterans in their classrooms, they cling to their outdated, leftist, bullshit dogma about us being ignorant, uneducated, babykillers like Rosie O’Donnell clings to a spoon full of fatty food. I can tell you this, the Veterans in college today, are VASTLY more educated, VASTLY more well behaved and more mature than their non-Veteran student counterparts.
Even in my AD days from 91-94 there were a LOT of NCO’s that had their BA’s by the time they made E6 or E7 while on AD!
Ditto except my time on campus was at VCU almost 40 years ago.
It would appear that she is not a liberal, unless someone fabricated this
http://chicoteaparty.ning.com/m/profile?screenName=18akjha8war7d
I was judging her by the body of her work. If she’s Tea Party, she’s one of those Ron Paul Republicans – the ones who though Adam Kokesh was a good Republican candidate in New Mexico.
FWIW, Her facebook pages lists:
“Americans Against the Tea Party”
“Claifornia* Democratic Party” and
“STFU, Conservatives”
* California, sorriy fer tha baad shplelling
It appears that I’m missing something then
This stupid c&nt needs slapped down, hard, and now.
One of the most inexcusable generalization about troops I’ve ever read.
Yes, her tunnel vision is quite disturbing. All vets are men, they’re all uneducated, and they are all rapists.
Well, what about us women? We’re vets, too? Are we rapisits? The military is a culture of rape? (Dean’s list here, every semester.)
She needs to be inundated with a large wave of female students who are veterans and who are considerably brighter than she is. If I lived in CA (which I will never do), I’d go register there and take her idiot class, just to yank her chain good and hard.
@Ex-PH2
Totally agree with you..I’d do the same thing lolz.
Fuck her.
Sorry Thumb….you first. I’m all about taking one for the team, but that’s a bridge (or should I say fridge) too far!
🙂
I wouldn’t fuck her with Paul Wickre’s dick and Jeremy Mooney pushing.
+10!
With a pineapple — sideways
Naw, naw, naw – that just compounds her attitude toward vets (and men in general).
No dates, ever again. And only female vets as students for the remainder of her contract term. See, we never used to have to evaluate teachers, but now, as I understand it, students do that. She sucks. Give her a bad rep, something like ‘with her people skills, she could probably find work in the janitorial industry’.
Ya need to move out there and audit the class…..just sayin’
🙂
The problem with parttime professors is they are sometimes worthless. Hopefully the administration does the right thing and terminates her employment. I don’t doubt that some veterans need academic help, but no different then the rest of the student population. The school boasts a 25% graduation rate and a 30% loan default rate. Her extreme prejudice toward veterans should be sufficient cause to be fired. Adjunct profs do not have tenure, so it’s quite easy.
You’re absolutely right. Barrycade was a part-time “professor”, too.
As a former part-time Communication instructor (different school), I’m offended. I can also say that I’ve had students who were veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan who had much better grammar than what I’ve seen in a quick survey of Rives-Meier’s FB posts on her page.
Speaking of grouping people into abstract social collectives to make sweeping generalizations about members of said collectives, I’ve never met an academic with a hyphenated last name that wasn’t total a c*nt. So there.
As far as written communication, which is supposedly her job to teach, 18-24 year olds in this country are ALL in the same boat.
I don’t think veterans, as a whole, stand out either way.
That she chose to single out veterans, then throw in the totally uncalled for “rape” comment proves she is just another piece of shit liberal with an axe to grind.
What coud have been merely a dispute on grading between a teacher and a student was blown up by HER deciding to take up the gauntlet against all veteran students.
If she was a professional she could have worked with the student to assure him it was his classwork that was the issue, not him being a veteran.
She proved his point.
Funny, I could’ve sworn I heard somewhere that the estimated instance of sexual assault per capita in the military is 30-50% lower than that found on the average college campus. And,last I heard, the schools in and around Chico don’t compare favorably in terms of safety for young females. Projecting much, Madam Professor Arrogant Liberal Idiot Hellbitch?
I wonder how she thinks about remedial reading and writing classes at her college for those students who didn’t have the benefit of military service.
My guess Jonn is that her beliefs would be that the military made them too stupid to keep up so that it’s the vets fault. And the military’s. So make the military pay
Exactly my point. Many need remedial coursework, especially at community colleges. We had Math 060, 070, 080 and 090, four levels of remedial instruction to pass the placement test for college algebra. English had a similar track, and students were not predominately veterans. Her bias is ridiculous.
No she would be the first one at the state or federal hearings on why we need to spend less money on Veteran’s Benefits in the state and more on public education. Only if those poor lower income kids had more money thrown at them and their teachers, they wouldn’t need to enter the military-industrial complex and fight the racist white man’s war for the oligarchy that is the corporations which own our democracy now.
Never mind that California pays more per public K-12 student than almost any other state, yet consistently ranks in the bottom 10 in student performance, and many schools are falling apart. But that doesn’t stop school administrators from driving Beemers, Benzes, and Lexi. There’s so much graft in California’s public schools that it would make John Gotti puke.
According to my sister, at the university where she teaches, the majority of members of incoming freshman classes consistently require remedial English and writing, and remedial Math. They have to pay for what they got for free in high school and if they don’t pass those classes, they’re on academic probation.
Shared her status and left some love…
Hey Jonn?
CAn we really blow her up? Please with big, wide puppy eyes?
Det Cord for everyone!
Wait…what? *Covers microphone*
*whispering*
What do you mean that’s not the type of “blowing up” she’s talking about?
OK. I have just been informed that TC meant to blow up her social media. Essayons Enterprises apologizes for the confusion. But, to prevent potentially destructive (albeit hilarious) misunderstandings in the future, remember to not say “blow up”, “demolish”, or “level” around an Engineer! 🙂
@ Mustang2LT
EEK! Yes, yes that is what I meant…damn Leprechauns are confuzzeling my thoughts…
Yes, yes ~BLOW UP SOCIAL MEDIA~ Not said APPALLING teacher.
Toasty Coastie: nothing wrong with your thoughts, lass. But as Mustang2LT said: the terms “blow up”, “demolish”, and “level” absolutely need to be used with care around a US Army Combat Engineer, or clarified completely.
Let’s just say that the Army Engineer community – due to training and occupation – has a penchant for taking those terms quite literally. (smile)
@Hondo~
I understand sir…and Thank you for the help 🙂
Would annihilate, crack up, crush, dash, decimate, devastate, devour, extirpate, flatten, obliterate, pulverize, ravage, scourge,trounce, wallop, mangle, or loot be ok words to use around US Army Combat Engineers?
Yep…..demo week was some of the most fun I had at EBOLC (formerly EOBC). Would have been cool to run heavy equipment but alas, officers aren’t given that training. Fortunately I did get some stick time as an enlisted Air National Guard Civil Engineer.
@ Mustang2LT
I am jealous…
My husband gets to do all the fun blow ’em up stuff…I only get to go to the range now and again to shoot cool Iranian Guitars….
Oh well..Maybe you can give me some lessons and pointers so I can engage him in my new found education on boom type stuff 🙂
Well damn, not det cord. And there I was thinking about compressed air and duct tape.
Think June Cleaver in the 60s … “Det cord has many uses. You must be careful with your wire ties. Always crimp your caps carefully! Now, about your fusing and tamping …”
If I got the lingo wrong, sorry. It has been a very long time.
Wasn’t there an EOD guy on Jonn’s page recently? A MSG with 6 years service? Maybe he could help?
Yeah, that clown would probably blow himself up! Don’t get me wrong, I’d laugh my ass off but I would feel sorry for the poor private who would have to clean up the mess.

I didn’t even think about it being Japanese. My bad.
Thank you! ♥
Posting now…she’s going to find out what crow taste like…Like phony wann-a-be’s, she’s gonna get the full wrath of us…it is now one of my special projects.
A great example of the ever widening military-civilian disconnect.
No way she has anything to do with the Tea Party or Ron Paul. Those guys are all rabidly pro-gun. She posts all kinds of anti-gun shit on her page. She’s a leftist koont.
Jonn, I figured you’d like this, and by “like,” I mean want to publicize this fuckwit for what she is! LOL
So should I quit working on the 3 associates degrees I am currently studying for? I’m asking because I’m a vet and apparently too stupid to figure it out on my own. Just sayin’.
I’m pretty sure she doesn’t have tenure with Butte College and most colleges don’t like bad publicity, so she’ll probably not have her contract renewed. One mouth, don’t get rehired.
It’s California. I did my grad work out there in San Francisco and was privileged enough to have almost half of my professors show open hostility towards me, the other half either hid it or only cared about what kind of work you did.
I compensated for the douchebaggery by, well, being myself and driving them nuts.
Open Blog to Ms. Dipshichtz,
Suck my Irish Sausage!
BTW in the Navy enlisted careerist most often enter with, have, are pipeline for, AA, AS, BA, BS, MBA … etc.
Promotion to CPO typically impossible without 4 year degree and somtimes the tie-breaker my go to a MBA or PhD.
Our military on average is far more educated and trained than the civilian sector.
And one more bit for you: I left high school (junior year) to steam boilers at the age of 17. Finished high school underway and the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations scored me at “pretty futching smart”. My college edgumication BS GPA was 4.0.
So in my view: you are a moron; I and my brothers and sisters are smart and you can KMRIA!
Any questions?
Did not think so!

Since she hates ‘ambush’ journos so much, can we get Glen Beck to call her?
Now that would be something. By the way, your first name wouldn’t be Winston by any chance?
Nah, it’s Walter. Walter Wolf. http://animaniacs.wikia.com/wiki/Walter_Wolf

I’m sensing a future crazy cat lady here…
I don’t think there needs to be a future there.

Screw the liberal/tea party argument.
She’s a Steelers fan. That’s all I needed to know to condemn her.
Asshat.
On this we agree. 🙂
Don’t get snippy there TSO. She had to have one redeeming quality. 🙂
Bubblehead Ray
Where? We’re still looking for it.
I attended college before I enlisted in the 80’s. I was asked to leave with a D- average at a community college referred to as “The High School on the Hill”.
After two years in the military, I started taking college classes again. Later got my Associates with a B- average mostly due to what i learned from military service – Showing up on time, taking notes, DOING THE ASSIGNMENTS, and attention to detail.
Later I got my Bachelors graduating Cum Laud, again due to knowledge and skills learned from military service.
Hmm, if a few bad apples set the example, can’t several good apples change that example?

What a strange way to view the veteran community. I only say strange because to a liberal it is probably a perfectly normal way to view the veteran community. Strange….I just graduated from an Auto Diesel Tech school in Nashville which had two main programs: auto diesel tech and collision repair. At graduation, the 4 top honors graduates – the Valedictorians and Salutatorians for each of the two programs – were all veterans. With myself being the Valedictorian for the auto diesel program. Screw this lady, she sucks as a human being.
Sorry, Cannoncocker, those skills are useful and applicable in the real world and have nothing to do with hurt feelings, therefore they are plebeian pursuits beneath such an intellectual giant as the semi-pro(fessor) Hellbitch being discussed here. She devotes her valuable time to such Earth-shattering necessities as “Women’s Studies,” “Ethnic (non-demographic) studies,” and “White Guilt 101.”
Numba one son finished his BA before enlisting. He will be out in 3 days. He is on terminal leave and studying for a Masters in Education at KSU Manhattan. He would have started on the Masters program when he first went to Riley but he made E6 at 6 years and a little and he was assistant platoon sergeant. For the past year he has been in the ‘Stan.
I know I don’t need to say this but — this woman is prejudiced against veterans and military service and, seeing the world through her bigoted eyes, she views her veteran students as a group instead of as individuals and attributes all of them with her prejudiced characteristics. This is a character flaw that significantly reduces her ability to teach and the institution she works for should consider that when renewing her contract.
Interesting.
I wonder how her employers would feel if the VA removed their college from the “approved” list because of her remarks.
Regardless of how left that school might be, they are certainly happy to dance for government funding. Threaten that, and you’d likely be amazed at how quickly they’d all publicly become pro-veteran. 🙂
And I don’t think she’s a c@nt. More like a talking hemorrhoid.
Tim, the school doesn’t seem to care about veteran funding. They have ~450 students on benefits and refused to agree to the VA’s Principles of Excellence.
Can input the school name in GI Bill Comparison Tool here: http://department-of-veterans-affairs.github.io/gi-bill-comparison-tool/
For-Profit schools and colleges with classes on military bases care the most about TA and GI Bill funding, and when you see that a school won’t sign the PoE, that’s generally a bad sign.
Yea it takes an act of congress to remove the right to VA education dollars at most schools. Just like everything else in the DVA, there just aren’t enough investigators and too many people scamming the system to make it worthwhile to place any schools on probation for violations of even the basic laws with respect towards how VA dollars and VA assistance is supposed to be handled at the State U or U of State or Tech U.
Jodi Rives Meier: They are not. They absolutely, positively are not. Wrong. Veterans generally do far better than their non-veteran counterparts in collage. I joined the military towards the end of my sophomore year in collage. When I started it back up, my GPA was far better than it was when I originally started. There are other examples as well. Military veterans bring a studying philosophy to the table that’s generally absent from far too many of their non-veteran counterparts. Jodi Rives Meier: There are reasons recruiters draw heavily from undereducated populations–two of them being they are often desperate and that uninformed folks ask fewer questions. Wrong. Recruiters don’t have financial demographic data in their hands that’ll point them to the poor/uneducated segments of the population. Actual data shows that recruiters recruit from all segments of society. Also, the bit about asking fewer questions? The majority of the people that join, from all demographic groups, ask a lot of questions. Jodi Rives Meier: Students with poor academic performance are almost universally encouraged to go into the military and, lord knows, Wrong again. Students with poor academic performance generally show lack of the traits needed for a successful military career. People in the military generally don’t zero in on them and try to get them to join. I don’t recall the poorly performing students of my high school graduating class being encouraged to join the military because their grades sucked. In fact, those of us in my high school graduating class that did join the military either graduated with honors, or were close to it. I graduated with honors from high school to my MBA. Jodi Rives Meier: their skills do not improve while in the service. Again, my performance, as a college student, skyrocketed after I had some military experience under my belt. I’m not the exception. This is the norm among other veterans that have gone back to college. Jodi Rives Meier: So, they come out with lots of promises of “job training”–which doesn’t translate to the civilian world– Many military specialties translates into skills that could be used… Read more »
That’s right, cloud the issue with the truth! 🙂
Seriously though, you hit the nail on the head with your thorough deconstruction of her ill – informed opinions.
Here’s a possibility: AFAIK the armed forces to skew a bit towards the South/Midwest & rural areas. Perhaps she thinks everyone from those areas are dumb podunks?
Miami University is a good place to go. It’s pretty military-friendly. Even the liberal teachers in the English department work very hard to keep their political opinions out of the classroom, not to mention the classes are taught by professors, not TAs.
Are we sure she’s actually a woman? She’s a fan of an awful lot of Transwhatever groups, and she has a mighty strong chin above that Adam’s apple…
typical shitbag lardass feminist lefty…so what’s new?
Here we go! First Jodi defender commented!

So, the day comes when the envelopes arrive containing acceptance letter from schools. I tossed aside all but three: Duke, Yale and Butte College. After only a few minutes, I was able to toss another on the No Way pile. So, it was down to Duke and Butte College. [To Be Continued]
I can’t. I just can’t do it. I went to her page to comment; only ‘friends’ can post.
My finger flat refuses to click that link. My cursor committed digicide. My monitor will never be the same…
No apologies needed. I wouldn’t want anyone to think I was friends with that ignorant waste of skin either!
My own computer set the cookies on fire as well as the link in history. It made it clear that if I ever inflicted anything like that again upon it, I would have lingerie shots of Rosie O’Donnell as my wallpaper.
What are you doing, Dave?
I can’t let you do that, Dave.
You don’t fuck with HAL!
What can I say? My computer can be a little malicious.
Of course only “friends” can post. We wouldn’t want to have any dissention in the hive mind, now would we?
Okay, Jodi, I like a challenge as much as the next person. So I’ll tell you what–you put your SAT scores and last year’s W-2 up against mine for starters, and we’ll go from there. Are you up for that?
Yes, the services have allowed Cat IV waivers periodically, but not frequently. As a matter of fact, as a former Navy recruiter, I can point out a number of circumstances where a 31 would NOT be enough, such as a non-traditional education, which INCLUDES the CPT (California Proficiency Test.)
As far as not preparing veterans for the real world, well, frankly, that’s not the military’s job, although they do a passable job at it via Transition Assistance and other programs. I would greatly disagree with you that military jobs don’t translate into the civilian world. My military experience allowed me to walk almost directly into a well-paying highly technical position, and in a field where my networking skills have ensured that I’m known pretty much nationwide.
As far as sexual harassment and assault goes, where would you feel safer: underway on a ship at sea or walking on a military base at night, or walking down Fraternity Row any given Saturday night? I think I’ve made my point on that score.
So while I do not (yet) hold a Master’s Degree, allow me to communicate something to you, “Professor”:
GFY.
Sparky, my only difference of opionion on that would be the class she teaches in community college isn’t “the real World”.
The only way a Veteran could be prepared for her class would be to get nuetered and have an anal-cranium inversion proceedure complteted.
I spent four years as a recruiter…and NEVER did my chain of command tell me to “go get us the dipshits!” Quite the opposite. And I put some BRILLIANT kids in the Air Force. I remember a guy who was on a full-ride scholarship at the local university, but walked in our office because he was “bored” with college. He scored a 99 on the ASVAB and went on to become an Arabic linguist. Yep, he sure was a dullard. And her assumption that we put extra effort to recruit uneducated poor kids is absurd. We used a simple formula. CCMAPPEDDS. Citizenship, Conscientous Objector, Morals(criminal record), Age, Physical, Prior Service Status, Education Level, Drug Use, Dependents, Scores(ASVAB). I looked for for folks who met those requirements. I surely didn’t put extra attention for lower scores, or people who didn’t ask questions. The only specific group I ever got orders to go out and recruit were swimmers. Yes, I was told to recruit swimmers because of the need to recruit PJ’s & CCT’s. And yeah, those guys are stupid right? Everyone wants a stupid medical trauma expert and air traffic controller who can operate outside a control tower.
Did you ever concentrate on water polo players or wrestlers?
You’d likely end up with the same grade of recruit…
Those sports weren’t active in my area. I’d agree on the water polo, and I know it wouldn’t take long to teach a seasoned wrestler some basic swim technique. In fact, one of the requirements that I had guys not make it through CCT/JP Indoc course was when they had to escape being held underwater. Right up a wrestler’s alley.
I’ll go one step further–from my experience, the “smart” kids were easier for me to recruit, as long as you’re straight with them and give them all the information they ask for.
It was the 11S/11M 32 QT kid with a boatload of waivers who were the royal PITA’s.
I spent a lot of time recruiting in CT and was lucky to be assigned an affluent school full of smart kids with little or no law violations. I did well, while the inner-city recruiters struggled. My biggest challenge were liberal draft dodging HS Guidance Counselors.
That was my problem. My Guidance Counsler told my recruiter that I was a Satan worshiper and dealt drugs. When he asked me about it I laughed and told him that I’ve never done drugs nor dealt them and that I was a Methodist.
It must just drive her up the wall to have the delusion of every guy in the military being a rapist and having NOT ONE vet in her class look at her with anything but revulsion.
The skank couldn’t get laid in a gorilla cage with a bunch of bananas and female gorilla musk rubbed all over her.
By the way, this is coming from a combat vet that just got accepted into an Ivy League grad program and is fluent in Russian as well as English and has working knowledge of German and French.
Almost forgot: I got 1400 on the old-school SATs, 99 on the ASVAB, and in the 96th percentile in the GRE. I’m in Mensa, too.
All it will take is a couple of years of chronic substance abuse, glue-sniffing, and a LOT of blunt head trauma and I could spiral down to her intellectual level.
So it would take you getting the “Full Androsky”?
Too soon, man? Nah. BWWWAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Considering that I have served in both the Air Force and the Army, MSgt. Soup Sandwich is lucky I don’t know where his grave is located. If I ever found out, there would be a large, persistent yellow puddle at that site.
What a cunt.
“rape culture”
Go walk off a short cliff you pile of shit.
No, there is a ‘rape culture’. Ever see the list of Hollywood actors, directors, et al that signed a petition in support of Roman Polanski?
I really hate it when ivory tower academic types complain about rape in the military. Are we to believe there isn’t a rape problem across college campuses in this country? And many colleges are not required (or just don’t) turn rape allegations over to criminal courts. Higher education really needs to look in the mirror before they start throwing “rape culture” accusations around.
If she wants to talk about ‘rape culture’, college sports is a great place to start…
I know of a lot of local colleges who heavily shield ‘student athletes’ from charges in a variety of ways.
Along with their Greek systems.
Really, DAB?
I’m sorry that the ugly bus hit you again. Most of the men that ever served in the military served with honor and respect for all.
But you know what? I will say this…we have in the military a problem with toxic leaders. I am sure your little community college has a problem with a certain “toxic teacher.” You don’t know who I am talking about? How you take some time to look in the mirror before you break the damned thing.
Again, i said it before, I will say it again, GO FUCK OFF!!
Having reentered the college world in this post GWOT world. I have come to understand that the College World is filled with ignorant people like her that love to make broad based brush strokes of generalizations. Simply because it makes them feel easier about their decisions in life. That they aren’t living up to the ideals of citizenship because they aren’t doing anything constructive to support the body of this nation on a whole except stay stuck in the background of the nation of old and stuck with the common ComIntern colored glasses of what the USA is. I have heard it from students who spent 6+yrs (some of them are masters teaching entry level courses because no one will hire someone with no skills in the real world) and I have heard it from school profs and admins as well that Veterans of the GWOT/OEF/OIF are the same as the Vietnam era ones. Screwed up ticking time bombs waiting to climb a tower and gun people down; but they sure as hell love them VA dollars. So that is why they tolerate our existence on their precious campus.
The biggest thing to get their goat is to smile at them and say, “Thanks for your support!” and just leave it there. There are some looking for a fight, if only to validate their own biases.
Well said.
Ok, before get started, I am going to use the following acronym to describe our esteemed mindless fool, which is DAB, Dumb Asshat Bitch. So now that is out of the way, Professor DAB: Let me this off my chest really quick. Had you said that in the university this veteran is going to, you would be having a very difficult finding future employment. My school dean is a retired Lt. Colonel in the US Army, who taught at West Point in his last assignment. Two of my most esteemed professors are retired Navy and Air Force. Professor DAB, you would not have time to clean out your office; you would thrown out on your sorry ass and everything in your office thrown to the nearest dumpster. Veterans here do pretty damn good here. As thebesig said, we have a philosophy most non-veterans do not have and we try very hard to share that philosophy with our peers. Recruiters do not have the information to draw from uneducated populations or from poor financial situations. I have seen the best and the brightest say no to college and go into the military instead. I have seen people who have everything they could ask for and more and they too, said no to college and went into the military. Those who have need to improve their academic skills AND that do join get better or they get out entirely. Most improve dramatically. DAB (I refuse to call you a professor because you are a professor at being what? STUPID???), our job training does translate into the civilian world, just ask my friends Dave and Doug, two satellite communications leaders, who went straight from Army to General Dynamics and are looked at because of their experience, their knowledge and their skills extensively. Most of all of us have great literacy skills. That safety magazine you refer to as a comic book, LISTEN HERE DAB, has been around since June of 1951 and is the result of not poor reading ability but a great and powerful way to get our concerns out, things that… Read more »
Has anyone noticed the weird photo she/it posted on her Facebook page to represent her profile? It looks like a well-fed Warthog in ecstasy in a pumpkin patch. WTF with the fake facial blood? Seems like she/it perhaps needs some special one on one?
Should not be educating Vets, or other students. No class, and limited knowledge of how the “big blue marble works.”
For a few days each month she bleeds from her face. Insert punch line of your choice here.
Soooo, let me get this straight. Little miss achiever here is a PART TIME instructor at the little for profit two year school in Chico California. Now that’s a real success story. By the looks of her mug, her other PART TIME job must be at the local donut shop.
Played college baseball in Chico. Back then it was called Chico State. Nice little Northern California town.
For what it’s worth little miss educator, I served in the Army in the Nam. Then came back and finished my four year degree. Funny thing, back in the day, I don’t remember any BUT college in. Chico.
What I do remember is having a prof or two who had a obvious aversion to Vets.
Your kind are well chronicled, you took intro to everything. Sooo, you think you know everything. Kindly take a flying f—.
Just to throw this out there. I spent 8 years as an at medic-6 in the infantry and 2 in meddac-I’m emt-b certified and an immunization/allergy tech. I hold a 3.7 gpa and have been accepted into one of the better nursing programs in the country without even having all the prereqs completed, yet. I’m minoring in psychology and waiting to hear back about the neuroscience certificate track that requires actual neuro research. Going through the paperwork for PA school admissions I had to calculate the number of patient contact hours I had and it was over 23,000. Not sure how I could have made it that far being uneducated. Every vet I’ve met the last two years I’ve been in college has by and large been intelligent and motivated to succeed, unlike the majority of our civilian “peers”. I spend more time helping civilians learn simple concepts in my classes than I study myself. The military taught me a lot of things and being dumb isn’t anywhere on that list. This chick needs to take her head out of her ass. -posting from mobile
so probably some spelling/grammar issues, don’t call the nazis-
@317 Air Cav,
Butte Community College came to be in the 60’s or somewhere around that time frame. It is located in Oroville, CA. The Chico location is a satellite campus of Butte. Somewhat common in the north state. To my knowledge Chico’s only higher ed is Chico State University Butte Community College must be providing the interim school. I guess mouth fa*rt couldn’t get a full time tenure position with CSU because of all her rantings about everything she knows nothing about. Check her pic out on her post comments. Really weird. I think some of her screws were tightened backwards.
Somebody like this is actually being allowed to “instruct” young people in Communication and learning skills for their advancement in life?
That’s the story of the Kalifornia education system. California went from the top in the nation back in the early sixty’s to bottom of the barrel now, thanks to the liberal retards like “Lil Ms. Jodi” and the strong democratic supported teachers unions.
BinhTuy66……..kind of funny for me. When I see your posts and look at your call sign I always play it back in my head. “Bin Tooie” (smile)
Well… someone just left this in the comments.

She has a hatred for all things military, as well as Mormons. Her ex husband and her son’s father is apparently military, which would explain why she’s such a bitter cunt.
Read her comments. If this is how she treats her own son, I’m not surprised that she has that attitude toward her students.
You mean somebody actually got desperate and/or drunk enough to engage in a sexual act with…that? May God have mercy on his soul.
That was an awful thread. I read the whole thing. Jodi has some underlying issues, that much is clear.
It does explain a lot.
And I do not recall anyone at my school in the 1970s having a sour attitude toward vets. But it was a midwestern university, more conservative and the protestors hadn’t found it or made a mess of things.
I feel bad about my ad hominem attack on her earlier, so I will present a valid criticism. It’s funny how every thread I see her post on usually devolves into an attack on someone’s grammar. Why does she insist upon grammar so much? She should know that language is a fluid thing, and language evolves. Surely someone of her ilk who believes that something as concrete as gender is fluid could be a little more compassionate about grammar mistakes?
Any time she is proven wrong, she immediately throws out “male privilege!” and “mansplaining!” as if they were legitimate ideas. Throwing out academic buzzwords in order to move the goal posts is a pretty good sign you are losing an argument.
What a piece of work. Has anyone sent the screen shot of how she treats her son to her dean?
Yikes. Her son, poor bugger, was actually pretty civil to her during that entire exchange. OTOH, she constantly belittled him and his views, and went ad hominem early and often. Consider the source, everyone. Being a lefty isn’t her problem, having a hate-filled heart is.
Is her facebook open, so I can go and open up a can of whoopass? I really despise people like this. The fact that Mr. Wolf used the C word to describe her says it all.
There isn’t much more I can say that hasn’t been said here except that my Army friends and even the acquaintances are miles above the rest of the people, with few exceptions. Oh. And it would suck to be her.
Yep. It is. But you won’t be able to comment on it.
With all the above being said about her “sterling” character (/sarc) and biases, would one with reasonable brain cells classify her as a Walking Hate Crime, just waiting to be arrested? But then again, in a Libtard’s “mind” they can do no wrong, and everything is justified.
Communications teacher, eh?
Well, she’s communicated all right.
Community College?
Chico, California?
Liberal Female?
Anything else?
I used to teach chemistry labs at a public university — I didn’t join the Army ’til later — and I had exactly the opposite impression. Student vets tended to be better students than the kids who came in straight out of high school. This didn’t surprise me; they were a little older and had learned discipline, so they tended to take their studies more seriously. And they had a lot fewer chips on their shoulders.
Mind you, there are plenty of troops (like plenty of other citizens) who don’t belong in an academic environment. But my impression is that vets come off better on average…mostly because the worst fools and the heavy dopers get rejected or wash out.
Guys – someone has left a comment in that thread that explains further what this bitch is about. I was right when I speculated that she cheated on her husband while he was deployed based in the dialogue with her son and her ex mother in law.
But according to this commenter, she cheated on him with an 18 year old kid, and neglected her kids to such an extent, that the cops had to get involved!
He says he has a copy of the original conversation between her and a veteran where she accused him of having more women to rape and told him it’s a full time job keeping military vets literate.
I asked him for said screen shot. I hope he’s nice enough to send this.
I hate to say this, but I have seen a lot of these entitled dependasaurus mil spouses who pull the kind of shit she did. No wonder her kid hates her!
I seriously want to light this one up.
If you can get it, it should be VERY interesting.
I’ll try. Hopefully he reads this soon.
I’m out for blood on this one, not only because she bashes all veterans as illiterate rapists, because she treats her own son this way. As a mom, I’m on a fucking warpath.
Two bad moms in a row: loony Mooney’s Oedipal helicopter mommy and this version of Medea when Jason came home from the Trojan War.
There is something epic going on here, but bring it on.
Sorry, brain fart this morning. Jason sought the Fleece, did not participat in the Trojan War, and cheated on Medea.
I am late to this thread. So I imagine anything I could say has been said in Spades. What a liberal, uninformed, biased retard. She is an instructor at a community college eh. In Communications no less. Communications is the new “gimme me” easy degree to go after these days. Don’t know what it means compared to the old days when Communications Degrees really meant something. I do remember seeing some “man on the street interviews” with people getting a “Communications Degree” on Fox regrading current politics. They could hardly form coherent sentences or use proper grammar or words more than two syllables. So that is my take on the current, “Communications Degree” programs being put forward. So it figures this libtard is right in line with her students. Except she has an agenda axe to grind because she has NO respect for veterans or their service. It is just her ignorant way of getting ugly (and I do mean UGLY) mug in the news and her 15 minutes of “fame”. Well she got it and showed all her ignorance in the process. Some of the sharpest people I went through college with on the G.I. Bill were veterans, hands down. Worked harder, applied their learned discipline from the military and did exceptionally well in all respects. So this broad can kiss my big veteran ass!
By the way, if she would cut back to maybe, a couple of pork roasts a day only, she could drop a chin or two. Bitch!
Okay again, “It’s not just the case of one or two incidents,” Rives said. “How many apples have to be bad before we suspect that the barrel has problems?”
Yea there is something wrong with the barrel. The “disgusting fat body of a barrel” she has for what she calls a body.
Then lay off them apples woman! AND the two pork roasts a day diet you’re on with four loaded, baked potatoes! Bitch!
