Nursing instructor recorded calling students "little shits" and "dirty little rats"

In a lecture video posted to a University of Minnesota nursing school class Canvas page, lecturers were captured calling students “little shits” and “dirty little rats.”

In the video, Dawn Fredrich and Raney Linck, clinical assistant professors in the school of nursing, expressed frustrations they had regarding students in the class, their responses and specific assignment results. In the post-lecture section of the recording, Fredrich can be heard calling students “dirty little rats” and “super weak.”

The video surfaced on social media after former Minnesota Daily reporter Audrey Kennedy tweeted out a link to the lecture.




The video has since been removed from YouTube, but clips of the lecture where instructors can be heard talking about the students have been re-uploaded with the screen blurred to protect student information.
