Professor claims NYU fired him after he gave James Franco a 'D'

<p>what I got out of the Slate article was how the professor of film, for many years, was in “awe”, after seeing the set where his student performed. </p>

<p>You would THINK that he has seen his share of production environments…this is the sad state of many in academia. Same with law school professors… many have not stepped foot in a court room. </p>

<p>Besides that though, what he wrote doesn’t matter. The issue is what he allegedly did/did not do at NYU. How can you fire someone for giving them a bad grade. </p>

<p>Ridiculous. Hope the professor gets mucho dinero from the lawsuit.</p>
