I went to University of Michigan's College of Engineering and there was none of this nonsense in that College. LSA however was chock full of this bunk.

It the Leftist's way: politicize everything. Look at Obama with his Surgeon General.

To be fair, if all the grievance-studies students were required to take an introductory calculus course.

“Activists at U-M trying to force engineering students to study race and ethnicity”

It’s okay...they have already done this to the military — What, just because you are engineer you thought you would be spared the PC crap...hahaha, yeah right. So, get mad, do something about it or shut up and take it and suffer the fools.

...if the proposal were approved by faculty

If that is all that is needed, then I'd say business and engineering students at U-M should get ready to either take whatever racist classes are about to be shoved down their throats, or transfer to another school.

Crap like this is going to make a lot of parents look outside the US to send their kids to college....Frankly, I’d love for my kids to be able to study in Europe, especially the UK.

If we cut off the taxpayer funding to these schools and students, most of this stupid stuff will go away.

Well I think all of the leftist dummies in women’s courses and other liberal fantasy/diversity courses should be forced to study and pass Ordinary Differential Equations, Partial Differential Equations, Statics and Dynamics, three years of physics in addition to a courses in Probability and Statistics. (And not the easy, blow-off math/science courses that liberal arts students take now.)

Why not? My son was one of three Caucasian engineering students at his university. I can see the Chinese and Indians taking this well. /s

It’s this kind of crap that will reduce the value of your degree, as the smart kids go to Purdue or Colorado School of Mines. When the College of Engineering lowers its standards, the ranking goes down.

So far, the Boilermakers aren’t doing this; my son is a ChemE student at Purdue, and he’s avoided this nonsense. Of course, I have no idea what it is that he’s studying. He left me behind several years ago.

A young lady I know is in a computer science program. This girl is absolute genius. She was forced to take a porn class in women’s studies. She fought it hard and was outspoken in class. There is no reason at all students should be force fed this trash.

I think sociology majors should be forced to to take calculus and physics courses.

Ok.

IF...and Only IF...marshmallow major..students take and pass a calculus course.

Something I guarantee the Obamadork could not do.

Your average engineering student has a order of magnitude IQ advantage over 99% of the so-called “professors” in lib arts.

There are, of course, profound differences among the people's of the earth. But one suspects that those pushing this have no intention of studying how actual differences effect performance, motivations, propensities, forms of socialization, political attitudes, etc., etc. That might actually further understanding among all involved. From typical academic attitudes, these days, it is far more likely that the "studies" will consist primarily of seeking for reasons to make different components of the student body either hate each other, or seek to walk on eggs--as it were--in response to contrived guilt complexes.

To understand the dynamics of the hate & blame games, see The Greatest Mischief Ever Wrought, or Blame & Envy Cocktail.

No one reading this ever sat next to their equal in any class-room, unless it was their identical twin or triplet. And it was not your fault, or his or her fault, who was better at what, and who had a problem with whatever. We need to put a stop to Leftists using the simple realities of nature to advance a demonic agenda.

How about in return we require the dim wits in the soft studies classes to pass at least one engineering class to graduate. Problem Solved!

African engineering: racist slur
German engineering: advertising slogan

In the new world order of hussein obama and his regime of racist thugs, we must be oh-so careful with our exercising of the First Amendment right to free speech. When President Sarah Palin puts an end to all of obama's nonsense, America will return to the country it once was.

The proposal is support by the Black Student Union

Illiterates...
