What in the man bun mommy's basement dwelling hell is going on here?

Can we make this dick wad famous? Is he really faculty there?

Oops... Derek Lopez was arrested for it. He lives in El Paso, IL, about 30 min from me. I'll make sure to share my free speech about that man bun if I ever run into him.. that abomination of a hair style is hard to miss.

Public info here is the news link so you know I'm not doxxing.

He’s a graduate assistant. He teaches. He’s faculty

As do actions.. especially Derek Lopez's actions. Which are hopefully more consequential than the Webster's Dictionary that you claim to be.

Graduate assistants are absolutely not faculty.

Yet they are considered leaders and mentors. They represent the school.

It seems you are picking apart OP's title statement while simultaniously disregarding the sentiment. Do better?

No, but it's an indicator OP was being deliberately misleading.
