I’d sue. What the heck, everyone else sues.

But yes, this is the way of the liberal professor. I had one that didn’t like my views on Abortion - in a “Philosophy” class. His philosophy was “believe as the professor believes if you want a good grade”. That was back in the 90s.

Find another college to go to and take your money with you. I wouldn’t put up with this indoctrination and go to a real school and get educated. They can’t keep doing this if all the students leave.

Can’t use people. It’s from the latin “populi”, which derived from the word for “army”, and Roman armies were sexist male-dominated institutions!

But we are not under Roman rule or do we use Latin even though lots of words we use are derived from the Latin. Maybe we could revert to Chaucer or Cicero verbiage?

Looks about right from my experience with feminist professors.

I agree. May of the humanities required courses were a huge wast of time. Never really learned anything useful in them.

I suspect very few would take them if they were optional, hence make it mandatory.
