Normally they would express their boredom with the material by answering emails on their laptops or falling asleep. But here they staged a rebellion, a French Counter-Revolution against Professor Defarge. Maybe, despite the professor's best efforts, there's life in American colleges yet."

The real failing probably lies with Dartmouth's administration. She quit, so there's nothing they can do now, but when the issue arose at Dartmouth someone there should have read her the riot act.

Unsurprisingly, it seems she's having trouble retaining a lawyer willing to take her case. I think the students, as a group, should get a lawyer (even if it's pro bono or a law student at the school) and send her a letter threatening to sue her for harassment, mental distress, or whatever. Stupidity is not illegal, though it may be tortious < g >
