Texas Professor Corrects Ban on “God Bless You” in Syllabus

Fox News with the latest:

A Texas professor issued a syllabus last week telling students to refrain from certain classroom behaviors, including “saying ‘God bless you,'” claiming that doing so would be disruptive.

The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley professor distributed the syllabus on the first day of school, outlining the semester coursework and identifying two behaviors the professor deems distracting during class: using electronic devices — such as cellphones — and saying “God bless you.”

…The name of the professor and the course were not made clear. The university said the sentence has since been removed from the syllabus and that the professor addressed the matter with students.
