The University of Oklahoma terminated instructor Mel Curth following an investigation that determined she acted arbitrarily by failing student Samantha Fulnecky for expressing religious views on gender.Fulnecky received a zero on a psychology essay after citing the Bible to argue against multiple gender identities, an assignment Curth claimed relied on personal ideology rather than empirical evidence.The decision follows public criticism from
Kevin Stitt and occurs amid a broader national debate over academic freedom and state laws targeting
DEI initiatives.
