Those professors have reaped what they have sown.
I have to agree with Steyn. I was a college student during the dark days of the ‘60’s-’70’s “social” revolution. The principal undercurrent wasn’t just hippie sexual freedom, for many it was the destruction of the American government and our free-will way of life. During the riots by the hippies at the Democratic presidential convention I realized the nation was in trouble. Joined the Navy to do my part defending it, get out of the academic environment, and oh yeah, beat the draft to draw. Spent more than 20 years in the Navy and later in the defense industry training warfighters. Now the damn hippies are actually in charge and their vermin spawn are raising hell in colleges. Again.
I live in the Managerial Age, in a world of Admin. The greatest evil is not now done in those sordid dens of crime that Dickens loved to paint. It is not done even in concentration camps and labour camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voices. Hence, naturally enough, my symbol for Hell is something like the bureaucracy of a police state or the office of a thoroughly nasty business concern.Colleges. Non-profits. Foundations. Planned Parenthood. Government agencies. Crony corporations. Etc.C.S. Lewis (Screwtape Letters)
