Miss Connor, you don't appear to take
any kind of position in this paper.

:58:08
I thought that, when you write, you're
supposed to be as objective as possible.

:58:14
That is a rule of journalism.
:58:17
It is often taught
and very rarely practised.

:58:20
This, however,
is a political science course.

:58:23
If you wish to write
about objectivity...

:58:25
...write about its use in modern
politics in your view.

:58:31
That'd make a good paper.
I'll write that down.

:58:35
Oh, Christ Jesus.
:58:39
What?
:58:41
In future, Miss Connor,
please find your own thesis.

:58:46
I am looking for evidence
of original thought.

:58:50
You are not here to simply recycle
dates and facts from the past.

:58:54
One's primary purpose
at university level...

:58:57
...should be to learn how to think.
:59:03
Now, question:
:59:09
Did you write this paper?
:59:13
You really feel like insulting
my intelligence, don't you?

:59:17
I worked my ass off on that paper.
I rewrote it three times.

:59:21
-Shouldn't be one misspelled word.
-Okay, Mr. Williams, I believe you.

:59:30
Are you having problems
here at Columbus?

:59:36
It's all right.
:59:39
I got a problem with the way fools
be tripping when they see a black face.

:59:44
Someone spit in your face
when you first came to campus?

:59:49
Was there a cross burned
outside your dormitory?

:59:51
No. I know what you're
trying to get at.

:59:54
Just 'cause it ain't up in my face,
that don't mean it's not happening.

:59:58
It's less physical now.
It's more mental.
