Yikes. There is a video circulating the internet that is posted to YouTube. It involves a student debate tournament in Kansas that films a heated debate between the opposing faculty members; one from University of Pittsburgh and the other from Fort Hays, which is in Kansas where debate was held. It is truly outrageous and involves quite strong language and inappropriate social behavior especially on the part of the Fort Hays professor (who actually moons the other teacher) and worth watching. It is also a great reminder of how foolish one looks when losing their temper in front of students, or anyone else for that matter, and taking a deep breath instead and keeping a cool head.
The heated debate can be seen at:
