"Megan Gill, 21, a senior, said she purposely sought out Barrett's class.

"I think there's too much of, 'You have to be sensitive to everyone,' but I think it's going to be very beneficial to hear a controversial, one-sided argument and his reasons why," she said.'


Good Luck with that problem you have, Megan.

Megan is typical of most students. She thinks that getting an education is like being a sponge and that soaking up everything as fact is equal to an education. In reality, getting an education is like becoming a filter. The better educated you become, the more you're able to discern true knowledge from total crap.
