Sinema teaches students about her first love - getting money from rich people

At least she's qualified for this one; it's not as if she could teach courses on public service, or listening to constituents.

SEN. KYRSTEN SINEMA IS LITERALLY TEACHING A COURSE ON FUNDRAISING


ALL STUDENTS HOPE to learn from the top experts in their field. Graduate students at Arizona State University have an unusual opportunity this fall to do just that, where Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., is teaching a course on getting rich people to give you money.

The course, titled “Developing Grants and Fundraising,” is one of two classes Sinema is teaching this fall at Arizona State University’s School of Social Work. The syllabus, which was obtained by The Intercept, says students will “learn diverse fundraising strategies” for nonprofits as well as “how to cultivate donors,” including “large individual donors,” by leveraging resources like “opportunistic fundraising,” “finding supporters for major fundraising events” — and, well, “asking for money.”


Betcha ASU doesn't have a professional integrity policy for their instructors; just one for their students.

One question.  Is she a hypocrite for not attending work when students are expected to attend class?

I think she is one, but at least she skipped out on work to raise money from rich folks and/or corporate lobbyists.

Also from the syllabus -
