It’s all part of their revolution. I’m a millennial and my PUBLIC high school in a middle class community had Latin courses (that included selections from the Aeneid), western humanities courses, a special course that mixed American history with American music and art, etc. Spoke with a former teacher recently and it’s all been removed in favor of multicultural BS and they are now prohibited from grading students too harshly. Any effort at all, even a name on the paper, gets a minimum of 50%, and the administration comes down hard on them if they hand out final grades lower than a B, especially if “people of color” are involved.

I assume you were one of the last to have that valuable education available from what I hear. I'll try to remember you when I wrongly paint Millenials with a broad brush.

I studied Latin and French in public junior high and high school---but that was in the early to mid sixties. Should have studied Spanish but didn't know it then.
