This was in the LA Times yesterday as well...a USC professor suspended for using a Chinese word that sounds like an offensive English word.

It reads like satire.

My in-laws speak Mandarin as the main language and I can verify this word does sound like the word everyone is saying. But you know, it's a different freaking language...

The oversensitivities of middle and upper middle class African Americans coupled with the neuroticism of white liberals are a really bad mixed drink.
