I'm out sick, so I don't have access to my files, but when I return to =
the office, I will try to supply you the citations where Hairston is, =
indeed, imho, condescending to students.  Why compositionists have =
deified her is beyond me.  She spread anecdotes as truth and never =
supported her assertions with research.  Instead of wrangling with the =
complexities brought to us by postmodernism, critical pedagogy, etc., =
she dismissed them, claiming that her opponents did not know how to =
write clear prose.
=20
Gee, Irv.  It seems we battle over this at least once a year, eh?  :)  I =
hope all is well with you

Thank you, Kathy.
That's how I remember reading the article.

<<I didn't read her saying that students were incapable of dealing with
political realities.  Republicans, maybe, but not all young people.>>

Okay, this almost made my laugh my afternoon coffee right onto the =
keyboard.
Seems spot on, though--Hairston's was less a "you can't handle The =
Truth!"
stance than a "Teacher's version of Truth shouldn't drown out the =
marvelous
diversity of truths students bring, from which everyone in the room =
might
learn much" stance.  It's a generous, appreciative view of students, not =
a
dismissive one.

Kathy
