A University of North Dakota (UND) professor has vowed to call the police on ROTC rifle drills, claiming that the program is a “physical attack” on campus. The professor, Heidi Czerwiec, detailed her complaint in an open letter published by the Grand Forks Herald.
She describes the ROTC rifle drills like a school shooting or terrorist attack. “I look up from my office computer to see two figures in camo with guns outside my window,” writes Czerwiec. “My first thought is for my students’ and my safety: I grab my phone, crawl under my desk and call 911.”
Emergency responders informed Czerwiec that she could be describing ROTC cadets, although authorities were dispatched to verify that no crimes were ongoing. Responders also verified that the student activities were planned and scheduled.
Czerwiec said she was filled with “fear” and “rage” when the emergency dispatcher explained that what she was looking at could be normal student activity. According to Campus Reform, UND announced the ROTC program through regular channels leading up to the drills including staff notifications.
University police reprimanded Czerwiec for calling 911 and that the students had permission to drill on campus.
Following the letter the university has announced that they will now make campus-wide notifications before every ROTC drill and personally contact Czerwiec before every ROTC meeting. Czerwiec has pledged to call the police every time the students meet for drill practice just the same.

“I guess I’ll be calling 911 for the next couple weeks,” writes Czerwiec. “Every time.
“It’s not my job to decide whether people carrying guns at school are an actual threat. It’s my job to teach and to get home to my family.
“It’s already highly inappropriate to conduct unnecessary military maneuvers in the middle of the quad. But with school shootings on the increase and tensions at UND running high, it’s especially irresponsible.”
ROTC and its high school sister program, JROTC, are popular with primary and secondary education students across the country. Many campuses maintain riflery programs associated with ROTC in addition to drilling, and for many students, they offer a smooth way to transition into military service.
Calling the police on such drills, knowing that they are regular student activities, can constitute a crime in many parts of the country. In North Dakota, false statements to security officials may be treated as class A misdemeanors, punishable by up to one year in prison and up to $3,000 in fines.
North Dakota has typically and historically been a red state or Republican State; how did this liberal gal end up in North Dakota in the first place?
I sure hope the University of North Dakota decides to evaluate this professor, Ms. Heidi Czerwiec to determine whether she is a good fit for both faculty and students.
Professor Czerwiec sounds like a real over-reactionary staff member to have on campus.
I hope they throw the nook at her. Fire her and throw her in jail. Liberal loons like her should not be teaching our children.
ROTC has been around long before she was. She can’t really be that stupid and still have a degree, can she ? Well she is an anti gun liberal so I guess so.
Next time she calls on the scheduled ROTC Drill, charge her and lock her up. Fake 911 calls can and HAVE resulted in the deaths of Law Enforcement Officers in the past
\”Thanks so much for another post. discover that kind of information noticed groundwork for a client, and material.penis extenders\”
This is nothing new. I was at Colorado University in the late 90′ and some anti-military lefty wack-job called the police every time we did our drills. Even when we practiced with rubber rifles for school ceremonies, she would call, even though we took the time to go introduce ourselves and explain that the rifles were fake. Like someone else said, you can’t fix stupid.
You CAN fix stupid, but it is a felony.
She’s filled with “fear and rage”…? She sounds unstable, like she might snap soon. I’m pretty sure I don’t want someone like that anywhere near my kids.
She fits the typical loonie liberal stereotype. They’re all full of “fear and rage” when they don’t get their way.
I can understand her fear when looking out her window and seeing camo and guns, but once she was told that it was an ROTC class, for her to state that she would be calling emergency personnel even when she is notified in advance that the drills will be conducted, could jeopardize someone else who needs those emergency response personnel for a real emergency, and therefore, if she carries out that threat, she should be fined, prosecuted, and fired. I have a feeling that she probably knew they were ROTC conducting a drill in the first place, and was attempting to make a political statement!
All i can say is (you can,t fix stupid!!!!
She will continue to preach for hate the military and guns until a Jihadist is drawing a blade across her throat. Then she will wish she had someone to protect her.
When she was hiding under desk,was she sucking her thumb and crying for mommy?
I suggest the Prof make her views known while searching for an new job.
perhaps she should go to England where she couldn’t see guns except with Islamic terrorists.
She should look for a job in Manhattan. She’d fit right in there.
If she continues the calls she needs to be charged with filing a false police report and she needs to be fired. She’s knowingly violating the law against false reporting and that makes a good case for a charge of “malicious mischief”. Find out if 30 days in jail might change her mind about the sagacity of filing those false reports. What happens if police are busy with her false report and other crimes are being committed that they are prevented from responding to? What if people die because she makes one of those calls? She will never admit to being responsible if that happens. It would be poetic justice if something happened to one of her family members and they couldn’t get help from the police when they needed it.
How, and why did she get a professorshop at the University of North Dakota, a state where hunting and guns are everyday life?
Low bidder or:
Higher learner establishments should have equal conservatives to liberal ratio.
There is no worse kind of stupid than educated stupid!
And we seem to have an over abundance of it.
I was an ROTC student… At UC Berkeley of all places…. in the late 60s, early 70s. I had a hard time getting dates, with the short hair and all, but never were ROTC drills misunderstood or harassed as this “professor” is doing. Angered and enraged? She should just feel stupid for being so ignorant of her surroundings. It is most likely that she is teaching at a “land grant” University (U.C. Berkeley and Stanford, for instance, are) They exist because the Federal Government donated them the land on which their campus is built (and provide monetary subsidies) on the condition that they host ROTC programs.
Yes, I thank teachers for being able to read. They need to thank the armed forces of this country that we are corresponding in English, and that we are not subjects of the English crown.
i wonder why the students didnt talk to the stupid teacher? dont the students know any of the people doing drills? something is really off with the story? dont get me wrong! the teacher is an idiot for calling 911 anyways cant she see the students uniform or training clothing with military insignia!
She’s not scared, she’s making a liberal hate statement toward our military and their ability to train. Fire her ass for false 911 calls.
100% agree. She is openly stating that she is going to make inappropriate calls to 911. Misdemeanor, but still a crime and they can fine her, and fire her
NAILED IT!
The professor said, “It’s not my job to decide whether people carrying guns at school are an actual threat.” LOL!
No, that’s not your job – just like it’s not majority of the population’s job either – but it’s basic self-preservation and common-sense to try and determine if something or someone is a threat.
These types of people are “educating” the next generation – and to think how much money these students/parents pay to attend her classes….astounding. I’m sure she’s one of the entitlement crowd which believes she is under-paid. Ma’m, you are clearly overpaid without me needing to see your last paycheck.
These are the same types of idiots – regardless of education – who need warning labels on bleach which say “Do Not Drink”.
They should take all such warning labels off all products and let the stupid people weed themselves out of the gene pool.
It’s sad that this type of person stands in front of students and may have influence in the shaping of their future views on politics and life. Now for the current situation if she doesn’t stop the false 911 calls, most municipalities have laws that will fine and or arrest anyone who knowingly makes these types of calls. She could be fined, charged with a misdemeanor or felony if this behavior persists. The school gets a lot of money from ROTC for offering the program and ironically that may be indirectly where the money to fund her salary comes from!! As another reader commented, the students and program should let the school and her Dept know that her classes will be boycotted by the cadets!!
Let her get fined for false calls. She does not seem to realize these people protect us and need to train in order to protect us. Having students and teachers see them and what they do will also better prepare the students and teachers themselves. She can go work in Afghanistan if she likes. Bye bye.
mailto:[email protected]
please email her and voice your opinions
This fear of guns is honestly getting out of hand. It’s like your neighbor telling you a tow truck is coming to get his car and you call in a possible car theft anyhow. We are being programmed with false fear. Best way to stop school shootings is to arm and properly train the staff at the schools. Less likely to try and do it if you think there is more resistance against you. Fight fire with fire.
Why don’t we just give up and let the idiots take over? Every time we adapt to this crap, we lose more of thoughtful life.
It’s already a done deal, i’m afraid.
let her call. i think frivolous 911 calls will get her a fine for each call.
Put the Liberal idiot in Jail for false calls to 911. And hand her her walking papers, Your FIRED.
Two other reasonable COAs
– One way trip to the Canadian border
– Gentle and humane euthanasia combined with brain dissection in the interest of scientific research into Hoploohobia
This is a nut and it is unbelievable that she is allowed to teach our children! Just undelievable…..
Glad my kids are not being taught by her! Although they would be smart enough to tell her she is an idiot!
QUOTE Responders also verified that the student activities were planned and scheduled.
If she calls again after being told about the activities then she needs to be arrested for calling a emergency number, when she KNOWS its not an emergency.
(Sounds like she moved from Commiefornia or Chicago)
Just so you and everyone knows, not all the expatriates from “The People’s Republik of Kalifornia” are not flaming liberal progressives. My email signature block includes the text of the second amendment and states that, well here it is…
(name here)
Christian
Constitutional Libertarian
Ham: (license number here)
Matthew 22:36-40 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”
2nd Amendment: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
Requiring a permit is an infringement. Forbidding certain types of weapons is an infringement. Barring weapons from certain areas is an infringement. The Second Amendment IS my concealed carry permit.
So you know what my opinion is and I was born and raised in Southern California, county of Ventura.
So – She’s calling the Cops – who have guns – on the militia who have guns ??? One has a Constitutional Right to ’em, one does not… Wanna guess which one ???
OK, notify her PERSONALLY of the upcoming drills, and then JAIL her if she calls 911 again…
Keep her there, until she reads the Constitution – Including the Amendments – and writes a report on what she has read, to be published in the Campus Newspaper…
I know – It’ll never happen…
It’s a good idea but I’d like to add one thing. Make the report a pass or fail situation and she gets fired if she fails and let me be the one grading. You can be my assistant since it was your idea and we’ll require it of every teacher before they can continue their jobs.
Just goes to show how a passive thought induced education system has turned a professor into being completely dependent on the thoughts of what she associates as superior. Meaning this idiot does not have the critical thinking skills to make one rational thought to save her life. She is a tax paying servant completely dependent on government services and is upon the influence of reporters, hollywood, and liberal politicians without ever once questioning one statement. Don’t laugh, because this type of thinking is becoming the norm for the country especially with the newer coming generations. God help us all!!
Having recently escaped the Socialist Republic of California for a free state, it really upsets me when I find the rights and safety of our country eroding. There are two points I would like to make. First, the college probably will not fire her for this action. However, there is an age old American tradition called the boycott. If enough students would boycott her classes, the students would force the hand of the college Administration to take measures against her. I believe that if the students do not stick up for their rights, and ROTC is one, then they will loose them. Just because North Dakota is a current free state, does not change that. I have seen it in California, and Oregon. We loose our rights the same way as one eats an elephant, one bite at a time.
My second point is simple. If there are those present armed and willing to defend themselves and others, as well as trained, then the chance of their being a campus attack diminishes. I believe instead they (those that would attack on campus) will go to a gun free zone where their chances of competing the desired mission will be more easily accomplished, and the chance of a lethal encounter for themselves drops.
Of course, if she continues to make calls, that is breaking the law and should be so punished.
If I were a group wanting to commit a terrorist act, I’d get a bunch of people, dress in camo, and get onto the campus pretending to be ROTC. There is nothing wrong with ROTC and ROTC drills, but there is a reason why there are ranges, and there is two week active duty for training for all members of the military reserve. The two week ADT is the proper time and place for training with actual weapons. A college campus most definitely is NOT. While I do not condone this instructor’s false report, I predict the one time someone does NOT call in a “false” report, will be the time the attack is real.
Having been in ROTC many years ago – I’d be very surprised if those were actual firearms, and not replicas. The only time we were issued actual firearms was at ROTC Basic at Ft. Knox. Other than that, .22’s were kept at the local NG Armory for range practice, but you couldn’t go use them without quite a bit of paperwork to begin with.
Having said that, in the current climate getting into BDU’s (dang….whatever they’re called now) and running around with even replica firearms will almost guarantee someone calling something in, especially in pretty much any institute of “higher learning”. Doesn’t surprise me a bit.
Agreed with your theory for drill and ceremony
Rubber Ducky you’re the one, babadaba….
ROTC cadets are NOT members of the drilling Reserve, however. The fact that YOU are silly enough to want to invade during a drill period does not mean that any ACTUAL terrorist is that stupid. Attack at the one time there’s trained, armed, response in position? Sure. Great idea. Why don’t you suggest it to your local terror cell? Maybe they can attach the local Armory during a drill weekend, too?
As for this statement.. ” A college campus most definitely is NOT [the proper time and place for training with actual weapons]. I beg to differ, If it helps weed out the hoplophobes, I’m all for it. Heck, my HIGH SCHOOL had a National Guard armory in the basement, and we drilled with weapons several times a week. 200+ JROTC cadets from 6th to 12th grades, for more than a hundred years, and not one accidental shooting. Or are you saying that a college student is more irresponsible than a sixth-grader?
Don’t you think you ought to go to your safe place? Wouldn’t you feel more comfortable erasing chalk signs and setting up teddy bear memeroials?
What a pantywaist.
Guys
I think the OP was pulling an April Fools on you….
The story says there WILL BE PRIOR NOTICE.This is like people panicking during 1st Tuesday 10am siren tests.
I’d like to remind all of you people that responded to this article that 2/3rds of you geniuses did not take the time to vote in the last two presidential elections. As a result, we have the Liar in Chief in OUR Whitehouse. If you want to make a difference in this country, and fix this politically correct anti-gun bs that has invaded our school systems, I suggest you get off your lazy ass and vote for the politicians who have an A rating from the NRA. Otherwise, you deserve what you get
What?
AS a California resident, I could see this happening here. I always thought we had ALL the liberal nut-jobs living here, I am surprised to find one living in North Dakota. Maybe one of the Universities here in the People’s Republik will offer her a job, so she doesn’t have to face another situation like that. That is VERY frightening for a liberal, seeing people training to protect people like her. Apparently the Libs think it’s “magic” that protects their Rights.
I am a retired college professor/administrator with over 40yrs experience on numerous campuses and I have found most English professors to be channel focused liberal idiots who have no idea of what really goes on in the real world. I took early retirement from the Texas A&M System because the “political correctness BS” has left our universities censored from academic freedom and free speech. I personally would not pay one red cent for my kids to waste their time and money going to any institute of higher learning unless it were investigated thoroughly. It seems the higher rated the university is today the worse they are as liberal crazy houses. The English department usually is the worst of all.
Dr. Jim-Sounds about right! Out here in the People’s Republik, if you aren’t a Liberal nut, you don’t teach here. My daughter has to bite her tongue in every class due to idiot Lib teachers, and needless to say, She wasn’t “raised that way”. However, discretion being the better part of valor, she has learned that if they discover her conservative ideals, her grades tend to suffer. So she writes papers that she laughs at the idiocy within, but comes home with “A’s”. The sad part is with the younger kids, some of that crap actually sinks in. It will take years of real world experience to undo the damage these teachers cause.
Woman is a jerk! She has been notified as to the activities and if she calls 911 again they should prosecute her silly ass.
Some people are just a special kind of “oh look at me….I need attention….my common senesce is in the negative…..
These men and woman of the ROTC would be willing to lay down their lives to defend this woman and this is their thanks…… so this would lead me to believe on of two things, she is a traitor or she is just dumb……. either one would make her a non candidate to teach. If this is the caliber of instruction at UND I should think people would be transferring their children out.
Another asshole. I wonder if she would feel the same if there was an active terrorist shooter on campus. The perfect answer to her everything is hide under desk.
Quoted from the excellent article:
“Calling the police on such drills, knowing that they are regular student activities, can constitute a crime in many parts of the country. In North Dakota, false statements to security officials may be treated as class A misdemeanors, punishable by up to one year in prison and up to $3,000 in fines.”
If this happens again, I hope the police follow up and charge her, and I also hope the Judge fines her the maximum at her trial. That aught to put an end to her special kind of idiocy.
She is in no danger whatsoever, and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law if she does as she threatened to do!
ROTC cadets poses a danger, PLEASE! As anyone who has served with a newly minted ROTC LT knows, their future soldiers are the ones in danger!!!
This woman should get over herself she don’t like it she can go to another college or country
She has one of the dilemmas of the our time, she is intelligent & stupid or intelligently stupid, it is so new that it has not
been even listed in the medical journals yet.
Judging by the rhetoric, politics, ethics, actions, business practices, etc. of our present candidates for president, where will our next generation of leaders come from if not from the military training programs.
Please read article at http://www.nysun.com/national/harvards-drew-faust-renders-historic-salute/89517/.
She now knows that ROTC will be doing future drills, yet she plans on calling 911 each time. Typical cooled drinking leftist gun grader who thinks talking to the bad guy will stop him. The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.
One day she’ll be mugged or lose a family member to a bad guy, then she’ll understand our God given right to life which includes defending it.
I believe the stupid cow should be fired and put to pasture in her safe space. For her own safety.
But hey, what do I know?
You just can’t fix stupid.
Really, is she a closet moron. She needs to lose her job and move to New York or to Denmark. She is the EPITOME of what is not only wrong with our University Campuses but with America also…
I guess she will be locked up the next time she calls.
Crawl up my butt, Lady. You don’t deserve to live in the USA.
I didn’t serve to defend your kind.
Semper Fi
I know, right? But son of a b**** if that’s not who we ended up pampering, too.
-Old Navy here. 76-79
I agree. Thank you for your service. Unfortunately, we both served so this imbecile can act like this. Cost of freedom. Bet she wipes her feet on our flag too.
OOOOrah Mike!
Actually, yeah, you did. So did I. 20 years’ worth. *sigh* That, unfortunately, is the price for freedom; some use it to be stupid.
But we serve and keep the oath anyway, right?
couldn’t agree more
I only hope this genius professor is still available to counsel Hitlery Clinton how to defend the nation with poetry….
That’s woman is not only a moron, she looks like the south end of a north bound jacka**. Those who can’t do- teach.
Are you kidding me. Dingbat needs to be fired. She is insane get a life or therapy
SIMPLE solution, next time she calls 911 she’s fired!
What a foolish cow she is! Sure this isn’t in california or new york?
I’d fire her ass if I was in charge. Book smart doesn’t mean shit if you can’t apply it in everyday life. My hope is she gets hauled away to jail and fined for every time she called tying up 911 and police for non emergency nonsense that everyone else seems to be able to decipher as a drill that has been going on since the inception of UND?! Crying wolf has never had a good outcome for those who routinely abuse it! Grow up professor!
This “professional” was aware of an ROTC program at this institution for quite some time if not before she became part of the school. Why does she now think she is in danger of being protected by our military leaders in training? That is what we are talking about here, our future military leaders learning our Constitution and how to defend it against all enemies foreign and domestic. I have no respect for a person who would take such actions to weaken us or make our military less prepared.
These students are training to protect her right to an opinion and her right to voice it. Her option to work somewhere else is also available because of those who train while she hides.
Let’s not forget, this is the same UND that caved to pressure from NCAA & other groups and changed their name from the “Fighting Sioux” to the “Fighting Hawks” to appease the whiners.
On a side note, I’ll be cheering them on in the Frozen Four next weekend!
How About We Keep Sioux!
As an educator (?) this college professor’s mission is to teach – right? So let’s teach her students what stupidity gets you in the real world by jailing and fining her rear-end in an escalating manner with each act of narcissistic, asinine behavior. Society has rules, to which the majority have agreed. If she doesn’t want to be part of her community or her employer’s tribe, she can attempt to find one that values such behavior. Good luck with that.
Ever her the story of the boy who cried wolf? What if she continues to make calls on these announced events and then reports a real problem and no one shows believing it to be another false alarm? And she is “teaching” our children?
If this “lady” is so terrified about ROTC drills, what’s she going to be like if it were a real attack…hide under the desk till they find her there while the students HAVE NO ONE to take a stand for them!!! If she wants to cause such an uproar over something that was given notification prior, then obviously this person is NOT who I would want “EDUCATING” my kid!
seems to me like they know EXACTLY what to do. Arrest this woman and prosecute her for the crime that she is committing.
I am not real sure why the clowns in the administration feel compelled to give this idiot SPECIAL notice of their activities … I am sure mudslum terrorists, the same that these guys doing the drills will eventually be putting their asses on the line to protect this idiot, will *really* appreciate that they can be fully informed as to the whereabouts of their targets by listening in on this twit’s line.
HOPEFULLY, after paying several thousands of dollars in fines … the moron will either quit (and of course file a lawsuit) or stop being a moron. I would guess the former … its a liberal thing.
I am sure that the puddle of warm urine that she sits in gives her comfort. When I was a kid this wouldn’t have even raised an eyebrow. We live in a nation of spineless cowards.
I looked this narcisstic pain up on the university website . She’s just looking for punlicity . Hopefully the cops will give her all the attention she wants
I do believe police should not let her get away with knowingly making false 911 calls. She states that she knows them to be false. Actually I do not see her as a sheeple , and certainly not a true liberal. She’s certainly more in the vein of many Anti-2A Democrats who consider no act too low to get their way. In reality they are neither liberals, socialists, nor communist – just plain old Fascist hiding behind a false “liberal” facade. Just like the self righteous , stop at nothing, groups forcefully stopping interested citizens like you and me from attending Presidential candidate Trump rallys. Their use of force and threatening violence to prevent free speech is reminiscent of Hitlers Nazi youth groups. Plain Fascist using force and starting violence to demand things go their way. And NBC, CBS, ABC, and MSNBC are leading supporters of their cause. The RINOs are no better. Their actions and their disingenuous and often false reporting; their staging and inciting incidents for an opening to present dishonest accusations against people with ideas unlike their own make them unfit to be called Americans.
Corrupt capitalists and druggies alike want an open border – money is the key. One likes cheap labor – the other likes cheap drugs. They use false accusations, and feign false fears to cover their real motives.
This crazy acting – and it IS AN ACT – “professor” is simply more obvious because she isn’t represented by a bunch of PR people.
Put her dumbass in jail the next time she calls and fine her the $3000 and she will stop the nonsense. Shows how stupid some of those teaching our youth are these days.
I think her editorial to the paper should have started out with: “Hey, I know I am a moronic leftist loon & let me tell you why.”
Let her make the calls and when the police is tired of her calls she will end up in court . then she will get what she is after publicity . The question is why is she doing this now? Why can’t her window be painted out with white paint , so she does not see them drilling in the quad .
I am a proud, hardcore, heavy duty, radical, left wing, liberal, DEMOCRAT. I am also a PROUD and responsible owner and user of several guns. This professor is an ignorant ***ch. If she calls 911 because of ROTC drills, then she is GUILTY of misusing the 911 system which I believe is a misdemeanor. Each time she misuses the 911 system she should be arrested, and CHARGED.
Stupid *&$#ing *!%ch. After a given number of convictions (say two), she should loose her job.
Never forget that education and intelligence are mutually exclusive. Education does not impart intelligence, and lack of education does not imply ignorance. This “perfezzor” perfectly proves my theory. She is as ignorant as a pile turds.
While I’m glad you agree this lady is a moron of epic proportions, I’m having trouble seeing how you are “PROUD” of your political affiliation. I don’t exclusively subscribe to either side but I’m a conservative by nature and if I were you I wouldn’t brag about helping to elect our current “Instigator in Chief” and his cronies. They have all but single handedly promoted this kind of nonsense. Furthermore, the Democratic Party are currently running a Communist and a Marxist as presidential options. So, thanks for your comment and enjoy your firearms (surely the “sporting purposes” kind) because given your set of ideals you won’t be able to own them much longer….
If your a proud liberal Democrat, and vote for anti-gun democrats.How can you be a proud gun owner when you vote for the very people who hate and want to destroy the second amendment?
The university should put him on unpaid leave until he is mentally fit to teach again. It is sickening to see how thin skinned and/or cowardly so many of these liberals are today. They should be neutered to keep their DNA out of the gene pool. It weakens the species. We would still be slaves to the British if American colonists were all like him. Have doctors developed spine transplant procedures yet? He could use on!
hey, he’s a she and a liberal to boot ! suggestion–boot her the hell off campus !
“He” is a Her. Transfer HER to Emory University where the students receive counseling when they are traumatized by seeing “Trump2016” written in chalk on the sidewalk.
And if it is an actual REAL threat NOBODY will come when she calls because she has cried wolf so many times. Maybe she should consider that.
I wrote the president of the university. My son is going to attend UND next fall. I told him as a parent of a student and a veteran I am not happy with her behavior and attitude. I suggested that she should find a different university to teach at.
She is close to the Canadian border just ship her out . They always have room for another nut case.I’m sure she has shamed many family members.
Just another socialist progressive with an agenda and she found a way to make her point. Peope like this should be jailed.
in war time, she would be shot !
Faux hypersensitivity in a teacher or worse a college professor is abhorrent. If she is truly traumatized by what is happening in the world around her/outside her window she should have her office moved into a janitors closet for her own protection.
F*@king moonbat, she needs to move her liberal brain dead butt to UC Berkeley. I’m sure she’d fit right in there, oh wait she’s probably not good enough of a instructor to get a position at a school like that. I wonder if she has tenure? if not I wouldn’t be surprised if she never gets it with stunts like this.
Every time that this “professor” now calls 911, she needs to be cited, and punished to the full extent of the law. If she hates the ROTC program so much, she had better take a position somewhere else other than a state like North Dakota. These damn liberals are trying to spread their vile hate traditional America crap to all areas of the nation. She needs to go to CA or NY.
Simply make her pay for each and every time she calls. 911 responses can be very very expensive. She would go broke very quickly.
Teachers like this are preparing their students for the eventual submission to Islamic takeover in this country. Convert or die and she will be the first. Think about it, when I was young, our teachers inspired us to do all we could to help our country. Now all they do is trash the whole fabric of what made us the greatest nation in the world.
I agree the Universities are poisoning our youth. Keep your powder dry because when Islam starts the takeover all I ahve is lead for them
Let me know when they start taking applications for this position, as a retired Master Sergeant and Emergency Manager I’d love the opportunity to be a part of a school that supports both ROTC/JROTC programs. I won’t cringe under my desk I’ll stand on top of it with a flag in one hand and my rifle in the other.
Both hands on your weapon, MSgt; this ain’t a Rambo movie. . You of all people should know better… 😉
She sounds like a nut-job to me.
yes she is a nutty goofy progressive lib-tard that needs her asked kicked off campus !
Seems to me she has now established premeditation for knowing what is happening on campus and if she calls again she knowing is violating the law and should be given a ticket. Give her a ticket for every time she calls the cops.
Sounds to me like the school needs to be looking for a new professor so this one doesn’t need to worry so much about getting home to her family!
Every time she makes a 911 call for the sanctioned, lawful, training, she should be charged with making false or non emergency calls. She fully knows what’s going on, has been notified; she’s just trying to cause trouble because she doesn’t approve.
Good for the college allowing the ROTC and training.
These liberals are trying to brainwash their students against the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Teach your kids while they are young, so they don’t fall into the indoctrination.
Thou shalt not cry wolf !!!
FIRE HER, cause her to go find a job somewhere else (like a kinder-care) as she is costing the taxpayers dollars by wasting the time of the law enforcement agency. No to mention this makes the school look STUPID, like they hire people who can’t think for themselves, it’s a college right? So she should be a bit smarter than tree bark …………… geeeeeez.
If that “teacher” is so ignorant and FILLED WITH RAGE, she needs to be removed from the campus immediately.
she is the danger to student and staff. her paranoia will create a hazardous situation for everyone. SHE will be the one that causes a situation that will cause harm to others.
Fire her immediately.
Are you going to stomp you little feet, too?
hahahahahahahaa.
The correction of the “sheeple” problem in this country will come eventually. I’m afraid though that it won’t just be them that suffer the consequences. There are just too damn many of them to think we’re going to reeducate such a large population. We’ve gone down the road too far now and will have to see what’s at the end. This fight is for our grandkids at this point; not for us.
If she is this stupid how did she ever get a college degree and a job teaching. This is the ultimate in a gun hater. Did these drills just start occurring or did she just now notice them? Would be nice for students to avoid her classes and she winds up without a class so no job.
I went to this college 20 years ago. It was very liberal at that time. Coddled the LGBT and the Muslims. This professor is a disgrace. Obviously their quality of education and selection of educators has fallen dramatically. If she was really afraid for her students safety and her own she would have gotten herself and her students out of there. Instead she cowered under a desk like the weakling she is. The school should can her and send her back to whatever rock she slithered out from under
“My new collection, Self-Portrait as Bettie Page (Barefoot Muse, 2013), is a sonnet sequence that negotiates the relationship between formal poetics, bondage/discipline, and female identity through the figure of elusive 1950s pinup Bettie Page, whose own identity was a series of costumes.”
What on earth does that sentence mean? This is what passes for an educated English professor in today’s academia. It tells you much of whatever you wanted to know about this woman who finds drilling ROTC students “scary” enough to hide under desk and call 911.
She says she’ll keep doing it no matter that the entire college is notified and herself in particular. I suggest the next time she does it, she is arrested for making false statements to security officials and sentenced to the maximum one year in prison and up to $3,000 in fines. Upon her conviction the university should immediately fire her and send notice to any other potential “professor” who wants to do this that this is the fate that awaits them.
Liberalism=Mental Defect or Disease and she is a poster child for that description.
Who died and left her in charge of determining what is ‘inappropriate’ and ‘unnecessary’?
Miss Kaleeforneya would do well to remember that the same folks that sanction taxation to support police response to her idiotic shrill and indeed all government activity surrounding this event also vetted ROTC activity. That body is…wait for it…We the People.
Guess she thinks she’s smarter than everyone else..
Surely there are repercussions for such a frivolous and obnoxious misuse of 911.
I wonder what she would do when they legalize concealed carry on college campuses. I heard ohio is trying to get a law passed liked that. I believe concealed will be allowed on college campuses (for permission only), and police departments and one other. that would make her day wouldn’t it?! 🙂 although I doubt Colorado will make a law like that to eliminate gun free aka (terrorist come in cause we don’t allow guns for any one who is good and law abiding). And second those kids are training for the military to defend her right to freedom. she likes her freedom right? or would she rather the people not train at all and get killed. Its the uneducated who are killing both our freedoms and our country as we know it.
Yeah, and Scott N. From post above will probably donate to her cause too. He is already half ass taking up for her already. Check out her Web site & her college page. She thinks very highly of herself. I would hate to be a man in her class, seems she carries dull shears around for de-balling at will. (Feel sorry for her husband / son) As a matter of fact she doesn’t even take her husband’s last name. Since she likes hanging out under desk so much, I think she should give good Ole Bill C. a call… lol
She is a 1st class CUNTinuous.
She was warned about abusing 911 calls.
So as she is intent on breaking the law, every time she calls; arrest and book her.
There is no excuse for her idiocy, her stupidity, and her blatant disregard for the law.
If this quivering mass of a hoplophobe persists in dialing 911 to report these scheduled drills, the UND Police should arrest her….every time!! Where do universities keep finding these whack jobs? And better yet, why do they keep hiring them? The young minds of our country are being influenced by the leftist agenda to do away with the 2nd Amendment from an early age with a program similar to the tactics used in anti-drug, anti-smoking and anti-alcohol programs. Start them young and get them conditioned to tell someone if there are guns in the home….then scare them so badly that the mere sight of a firearm, even in the hands of a trained military or law enforcement officer has them hiding under a desk and dialing 911.
Ms. Czerwiec is engaging in typical liberal harassment for her own political purposes.
She should be removed before she gets tenure and the school should examine why they have “poetry classes “since poetry won’t help any student find a meaningful job after they graduate.
I was hoping that she at least lived in Minnesota and commuted to UND, but alas, it appears no luck for ND on that one. MN would be a better fit for her.
I resent your characterization of Minnesota and its residents. It may be true for the Southern half of the State…especially around the 7 county Metro area, but the rural residents are mostly conservatives. We’re just outnumbered by the sheer volume of voters living in the Twin Cities.
Oh no you don’t! We have an overwhelming surplus of Ninnyhammers over here already. Ship her off to the People’s Socialist Democratic Republic of California; she’ll get triple the salary and she’ll be much happier surrounded by Politically Correct drones.
Yes Minnesota at, least the Twin Cities is a Liberal factory but there are a few of us that still have common sense and love our Constitution. Kalifornia would be a better fit for her.
So she calls the first time and the Police respond, find out its an ROTC drill and that it was legal, it was part of the class’s regularly schedualed training and that the class or school provides a timely “heaqds up” if you will, about these training sessions. Then she is reprimanded about calling in flase complaints to the Authorities and told she could be arrested and thrown in jail for up to a year. So what does this woman do? she publicly vows to call the authorities EVERY time the ROTC holds one of these training sessions, even though she will be warned when it will take place! Now im no “Expert” on such matters but… it seems to me that the school and ROTC program administrators are doing nothing wrong or out of the ordinary in this situation as they do provide the times and locations of these drills so students and staff will know when and where to expect to see them going on. And now it seems, the school will also be extending their warnings making it even easier for Staff and Students to know about these training sessions well before hand so things like this wont happen again. Given that information, this teacher is still vowing… VOWING, to call in an active shooter report to local and / or School authorities when these training sessions are held knowing full well , way before had, that it is not terrorist attacks or Active shooter situations but part of the ROTC training, and being warned already by authorities not to do this or she could be facing Arrest, fines and imprisonment. This just shows me (and any normal, non trouble making, lawsuit happy, mentally fit adult that this woman has some pretty severe mental issues and is probably not a person who should be left to “Teach” anyone let alone college students. She sounds like she needs some mental help and maybe some time away from society to learn to come to grips with her irrational fears and her refusal to obey the law!

For those that are interested….
the country is sick to death of goof balls like this ! make damn sure that at the very leas, she is made to sit down under her desk and read all of these comments ! molon labe
Textbook hoplophobe and a wack job to boot…
Things turned out ok this time. It would be awful if the next time she calls in a knowingly false complaint. One of these cadets ends up being harmed by a responding officer that didn’t get the memo or forgot the ROTC was drilling. Things can and do have a way of going sidways. Something she may want to think about before we he tries her next little activist stunt. I doubt she would want a hurt young person on her conscience nor the legal ramifications that would result.
I think that you are giving Ms. Czerwiec more credit then she is due. Should something untoward occur as a result of her false report(s) I have every reason to believe that someone with her limited understanding of how and why she actually has the freedom to live as she does would blame either the ROTC cadets or the responding officer(s) rather then accept any blame herself.
You’re assuming she HAS a conscience. Many liberals don’t – early on, they trade it in for a “social conscience” which is guided not by a sense of right and wrong, but the things their favorite politicians say.
Being located in North Dakota, Ms Czerwiec is insulated from the worst of the actual violence that others of us have to consider as an actual possibility from actual felons – not patriotic ROTC cadets whose use of rifles is supervised by a military cadre.
It’s a pity our administration is anti-military. This could be a great chance for Ms. Czerwiec to have to explain her actions in court, because I’m sure that her announcement in advance of her willingness to incite an incident between ROTC cadets acting under the direction of active-duty military officers and local police isn’t just a state or local offense, but violates Federal laws as well. It’s time for people like this to discover their actions have consequences.
The article also contains the remedy to this troublesome individual. Making false 911 claimed is against he law. She has been warned and will be notified of future drills,as apparantly ,despite being a professor ,she is unable to read .
If she calls again she must be arrested and charged .A conviction should put an effective end to her teaching career.
“teaching”?!!
Teaching the value of national defense supercedes what wing-nut course she ‘teaches’ to be able to have “a home and family” to safely return to.
This proves her to be insufficiently capable of “teaching” anybody anything ~!
They need to fire her and let her find other work that she feels at. 90 days in jail and a $1000 fine wouldn’t hurt , and just think it is a gun free zone.
SHE is what is wrong with our colleges! Moronic, idiotic, people like this left unchecked when they do something illegal because they are “Afraid”! She deserves to be arrested, fined and fired from her job! Any other crime and she would but our nation is too full of “Safe Zones” and liberal colleges to have any resemblance of common sense!
The police should have arrested & led her out of the school in handcuffs for the entire student body & faculty to see. She should not be allowed into another school to continue her quest of dumbing down the students.
The bloody idiot needs to be arrested, kept in jail for at least two days, and then billed for the expense of incarcerating her. If that doesn’t work after, say, three episodes, she should be terminated AND arrested. This kind of idiocy is nonsense and utterly unacceptable, especially by a professional educator. Disgusting.
Took a quick look at her book ‘A Self Portrait as Bettie Page’ on Amazon. The Introduction is word for word from the Wikipedia article on Page. Seems to me a professor of poetry and creative writing would know what plagiarism is.
She should join a convent.
The Decline and Fall of America, as idiots like this “professor” complain of “micro aggressions” and the system pays her mind rather than locking her in the booby hatch!
1st call and I would arrest her for false reports.
Would you expect an idiot who says, “I love the feel of words in my mouth”, as per her website, to be anything but a complete IDIOT?? Fools like this are corrupting future generations all over this country and it has to STOP, professors need to be thoroughly vetted!
They ARE being vetted…. by a left wing dean of education, defended by a left wing dept. of justice, and justified by a left wing media. We should all be more sensitive and sympathetic to her being routinely subjected to this domestic terrorism training…. ( puke, roll eyes, bang head ) Anyone ever watch the movie Demolition Man? That’s where we are headed if we don’t wise up soon. It’s OUR job as parents to educate our children to think freely using logic and reason. Do not leave that important responsibility up to some loon with a conformist left wing agenda. As a side note, I’m working on inventing band-aids for “feelings” if anyone wants in on a HUGE potential money maker…
After looking at the bio provided above and reading her quotes, I would be much more afraid of the real possibility of her “snapping and going off the deep end” some day in the future. Hopefully, she is prosecuted for any violations of laws and legally denied access to the firearms she obviously dislikes.
She should be arrested and relieved of her position. She knew it was ROTC drills that’ll are part of training. Another liberal anti-gunner of the worst kind. She is the one endangering people Spreading emergency workers thin, interference with planned Goverment and military required training. In college most are in ROTC with plans to go in military and serve as officers. Get this whining women out if our education system!
Toss the bitch in jail if she calls again-if she does it a third time, fire her.
Back when I was in ROTC some frat guys across the street would play the Mickey Mouse anthem on a loudspeaker while we were out on the practice field doing drills. Nowadays even college professors –well, at least one who’s obviously some kind of paranoid nutcase– are scared to death of them. ‘Bout time they got some respect LOL 😉
Here’s her personal website;
http://www.heidiczerwiec.com/
Why don’t you all post a comment to her as to how you feel about her idiotic comments.
Thank you for posting her personal website information. I just sent her an email requesting her to resign. The next one will be going to UND.
And this person is teaching our kids, the future of our nation. Just that thought should scare the bejeezusus out of every person.
Not teaching…indoctrinating. Read the bio on her website. Clearly a self obsessed, self righteous, morally superior psuedo intellectual menace. Thanks to those who posted a link.
You’re quite welcome.
Charge/Fine her every time she does it and on the last day of school, give the liberal idiot her walking papers.
This woman exemplifies liberal thinking. “My first thought is for my students’ and my safety: I grab my phone, crawl under my desk, and call 911.” In what possible way is crawling under a desk going to help protect her students?? She clearly has never taken any Active Shooter classes, and since she already had been informed of the ROTC training maneuvers, this appears to me to just be a way for her to draw attention to her hatred of guns and the military. Now the college is going to notify everyone (which they did anyway) whenever there is ROTC training, and are going to go out of their way to notify her in particular. If she then calls 911 to report a shooting (as she said she will do), well let’s see how safe she feels in jail for filing false reports.
Yes!
It’s libtard ilk like this one who has been writing our foreign policy for the last 8 years.
At the first sign of potential trouble, they dive under the desk and call someone.
This time, it was a drill and there was campus police.
When the real thing break out, and after years of demasculinizing men and feminizing the military, who the HELL will they call on to defend them??
As far as I am concerned, the whole damn lot of them can get under desks and just stay there!
Americans/AMERICA 2016!
Heh, The 19 year old daughter of a friend of mine, who is at least 5′ tall if she’s an inch, is in College ROTC, scheduled to attend OTC this coming fall, after attending jump school and leading her platoon, making expert rifleman and would rip this putative teachers head off verbally for being such a wimp and libtard.
The teacher is obviously paranoid and need to have her psychologist change her meds.
It appears to me the answer was published right there in the article itself:
“In North Dakota, false statements to security officials may be treated as class A misdemeanors, punishable by up to one year in prison and up to $3,000 in fines.”
Tada – Problem Solved! (For at least a year at a time…)
Maybe the teacher will get herself an education behind bars…
Libtardism….the erroneous belief by the mentally disturbed that a turd can be polished to a high shine with a stiff wire brush. This “professor” and all like her should relocate to Brussels, Belgium or better yet Raqua, Syria
Typical liberal reaction,I am sure that there was prior notification.
This sickening and disgusting so called professor should be fined to the maximum every time they call 911. You just cannot manufacture enough bailing wire and duct tape to fix STUPID!
Just another attempt to bring the wrong type of headlines to the forefront about guns. She should be reprimanded for the misuse of the 911 system, and maybe she should have a notation put in her employment record about her dislike and mistrust of anyone that is involved with firearms. This is the USA and we have the 2nd amendment right to keep and bear arms.
I guess she just wants to draw attention to herself in order to boost her book sale on Amazon. Below is from amazon. Yes it is the same Heidi
“If ‘nuns fret not at their convent’s narrow rooms / and hermits are contented with their cells,’ imagine the fun to be had in lacing pin-up icon Bettie Page into this ‘scanty plot’ of poetic corset, the sonnet. Rarely are form and content so well suited as in Heidi Czerwiec’s wittily kinky peek-a-boo of a collection, almost-but-not-quite bursting at its seams with author/persona conflation/confusion, wide-ranging allusions, and wonderful word-play. Full of ‘levity’ and ‘heft,’ the poems ‘capture…in meter’s narrow aperture’ not only the biography/mythology of Bettie Page, but also a strong sense of an authorial coming to terms with her own formal ars poetica. Indeed, ‘it’s hard outside constraints that you construct,’ but it’s easy as cheesecake to appreciate these poems, on the cutting edge of contemporary work that is keeping the seemingly ancient form of the sonnet smart, sexy, and ever so relevant.” Moira Egan
If the above was an example of the verbiage she thinks is poetry then we do have an example of someone who is close to the edge. Totally self-serving references to arcane old English usage and smugness that it was ever published. As someone said, “A whack job.” The more likely than others among us who will snap and cause a problem, preferably contained by armed police.
I have written amazon and demanded they remove her sex filled filth from their website as unsuitable because children may see it.. I hope they pull her trash off.
These people make me ashamed of this nation. Why has society in general become suck sissies. This woman needs to be committed to a mental institution and is unfit to teach our children. This is a prime example of why we have so many idiots running around today. She needs to figuratively grow a pair. We would all be speaking either German or Japanese if this was the standard in the 1940s.
She should have been charged with misuse of the 9-1-1 system because it can be shown that he had foreknowledge of the exercise of ROTC. Seriously Professor? You don’t have any morality to call terrorist attack the cadets drill. Shame on you and your kind.
So just a couple questions, first is this a firts year professor at this university? , is this the first year for the rotc programs?, if the answer to either is no, then this professor is just another fear mongering libtard.
A perfect example those that become (educators) do so because they can’t do any thing else.
This professor sounds like your typical east coast libtard. She was educated at UNC and UTAH, so you’d think she would know what ROTC was being that both schools have ROTC programs. This is just your typical liberal trying to attack the 2A in any way they can. For her sake, I hope her husband isn’t as much of a coward as she is.
https://arts-sciences.und.edu/english/faculty/czerwiec.cfm
Ms. Czerwiec was a trifle over the top about this drill and I don’t believe she’ll be calling every time she sees ROTC cadets drilling on campus. However, the ROTC commandant notified all UND staff by email that a training exercise would soon be taking place (an email that Ms. Czerwiec did receive), BUT the commandant failed to inform UND staff precisely WHEN the drills would be taking place, as they had in the past. UND’s ROTC command staff recognized their failure to give proper notifications to university staff and pledged to improve their chain of communications in regards to all future drills. I live in Grand Forks and attended UND in the ’70s. There is egg on the faces of each side in this case. Yes, Ms. Czerwiec over reacted. She’s just not used to seeing cadets handling M16s conducting drills around buildings on campus. Later ROTC ops were conducted in Grand Forks city park areas and I believe they left the rifles back in the armory.
Don’t make excuses for this pitiful example of a professor want to be. She is clearly an idiot. Having the ROTC accept ant responsibility for her stupid actions is just more PC crap.
Maybe she needs to find a more “liberal” school to teach where they don’t allow ROTC cadets – possible future military officers. She should realize firearms are nothing more than tools. Like a hammer, a SAW (pun intended), or a forklift. They help get the job done
She’s another member of the human population known as sheep. Many sheep are uncomfortable with the sheep dogs (police as well as ROTC). Many sheep don’t want to know how the sheep dogs keep them safe from the wolves. They can’t face the realities of what is very often necessary to keep them safe in this new world of increasing crime and terror.
I got a big bang out of your pun. Mine intended too.
I think this woman needs a mental health evaluation. The fear she has internalized is going to drive her into drastic action, and at the peril of the students.
Proof positive of “educated” idiots in action. ROTC has likely been around longer than this brainless professor has been teaching….and was probably in the very college she attended….yet she has never heard of it? Wow….She seems quite UNEDUCATED to me…LOL!
This “educator” should be terminated and prosecuted for filing a false police report. This is the perfect example of a libtard. She knows this is legal activity and yet she wants to dictate what activities people can engage in. Get over it or get counceling. LEAVE OUR RIGHTS ALONE!!!!!!!!
Absolutely right!
Oh, my darling little frail flower of a professor…why don’t you grow up and quit being a PITA. Hopefully the authorities will arrest you for abusing the 911 system. You’re right, it’s not you’re job to determine the legitimacy of the ROTC students conducting a drill, so quit looking out of your window, read your campus announcements and teach (if that’s what you do) your students. If you hate the military that much, maybe you should thank them because they gave you the freedom to be stupid and the freedom to teach in this great country.
Yet again ignorance ruins the day. The sad part is some affiliation will jump in and back this woman, pay any fines she is given. Then worthwhile education directed for the youth of this country will be tossed out the window. Hopefully North Dakota won’t fold. And will hold this so called teacher responsible for her actions. Land of the weak and home of the afraid.
