SDSU removes teacher from 2 courses for using racial epithets in course work

SAN DIEGO — For the second time in less than a year, San Diego State University has reassigned a teacher for using racially charged language in the classroom.

The new incident involves J. Angelo Corlett, a tenured philosophy professor who last week was relieved of his duties teaching two courses, one on critical thinking, the other on race and racism.

Corlett told the San Diego Union-Tribune he used an informational slide in both classes that listed 10 to 12 epithets that have been used against Black, Hispanic, Latino, Asian and white people.
