Great question. Certainly not in my lifetime (or what's left of it). And definitely not if we're always 'differentiating' people. Let's face it: we are a 'categorical' species. And within this inherent nature, we 'prioritize'. It's only when we 'stereotype' based on sociological pressures do we find the true flaws in that trait. Our 'educational' system is, at the core, a form of prejudice as it rewards those who have the ability to book learn yet penalize those who may have blue collar talents. Bottom line answer to this question: no, unless we radically change our educational system.
Huggins might be in trouble, DUI is good, Bees are bad

There’s no chance to ever purge it, not by legislation anyway. It’s not unique to the US either. If you forced an entire country to comply non-organically it’ll get ugly. I do believe in time, as we continue to evolve as a society and don’t reward behavior like this, it’ll shrink. Huggins needs to be reprimanded and if it continues afterward he needs to be dismissed.
I graduated from high school in 1979. Junior high was in the same building. Also I am not a liar. And now putting you on ignore.
Good people can make poor decisions
If he was already on a performance got seat, he'd be gone.
He will get another year and retire.
My 50 year high school reunion is this summer. You apparently have no idea of the changes that came about during my lifetime and Carver's lifetime. Her brothers are probably my age, or even older, and I remember separate bathrooms and drinking fountains in the south. I remember seeing the protests and marches and firehoses on the nightly news. I was 9 when the Civil Rights Act was signed into law by Johnson. That changed things on paper, but only partly in practice. And I very clearly remember MLK Jr's assassination in 1968.
I see no reason to doubt what Carver said.
Bob Huggins attending sensitivity training could be a pretty compelling reality show.
He's essentially be charged $1M for saying that word. I think that's a pretty consequential penalty.
I am picturing the Office episode where Michael Scott has to have psychology talks with Toby lol
I'm thinking of the What About Bob scene where he's telling jokes to the psych team in the ward.
Bigger penalty than I was expecting honestly. I was expecting like a 3 game suspension against a bunch of **** teams at the beginning of the year
Also, if I remember correctly, carver said it was one teacher that did this. Is it really unbelievable that there was one teacher in southeast Iowa when carver grew up that did this?
I like the fine since it sounds like it is about 25% of his salary, but I would have also preferred more games since these should not be challenging games
The teacher in Wausau that got reports dismissed for slurs recently would indicate it those types of things didn't just fly away and won't.
Fines for rich people are like get out of jail free cards. $1M is absolutely nothing to someone like Huggins who has accumulated enormous wealth over his life.
How long is suspension? Should probably match the fine so 25% of games?

Market price for being a bigot has been set at $1M
Seems like a pretty self-serving punishment for WVU. Keep your HOF coach and pay him less.
The suspension should be for more than 3 games against cupcakes imo
Edit: their first 3 games are Missouri State, Monmouth, Jacksonville State
Then next 2 games are in a tournament against Virginia, Wisconsin or SMU

Give him the million dollars back and make him do the sensitivity training on TV
