"Probably like every English department in the country, we still have Of Mice and Men and To Kill a Mockingbird [on] the shelves," Crosbie reportedly told the annual meeting of a teaching union. "They are now taught less frequently because those novels are dated and problematical in terms of decolonizing the curriculum.
