I would love to see the Leftists’ heads explode if ideological affiliation were added to “diversity” and required like others in “protected classes”.
The meltdown would be worse than chernobyl and so entertaining, popcorn supplies would be almost instantly exhausted.
Survey shocker: Liberal profs admit they’d discriminate against conservatives in hiring, advancement
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/aug/1/liberal-majority-on-campus-yes-were-biased/
And there are other things we can do.
Don’t donate to schools that oppress conservatives - and tell them this is why you won’t donate to them.
Don’t send your children or grandchildren to these discriminatory institutions, and tell others that is the reason. Many parents just look at the website or fall in love with the campus. Discuss the horror stories of X professor calling the police on someone who presented a pro-gun paper, the professor who says we need to deny freedom of speech to X and Y groups.
Whatever school your kid attends, don’t let them get an ethnic studies, women’s studies or social justice degree.
Teach kids to film professors when they are speaking, especially if they say “don’t tell anyone else about this”.
Defend all students who do record. Your classroom is not a counselor’s office, it is a public space we’re paying for. You have NO expectation of privacy. This is public record, and often, self-defense.
Great points, all.
I was referring to your reading and posting of comments on ratemyprofessor.com. True, not as good as being able to vent to the student next to you about some tyrannical leftist instructor. But at least when you’re sitting at home at your computer at an online course you can yell out insults at idiots like this and/or go to some site like that right away to vent your rage.
That’s meeting a primal need, as I think having to just sit there and take in in a live class is very unhealthy and a key component of the left being able to brainwash our youth, that gets removed from the online experience.
So sure, the online experience isn’t perfect either, but I have a lot more hope for young minds being able to resist the mind control efforts of these leftist propagandists if they don’t just have to sit there and repress there thoughts and emotions in class in order to fit in and succeed.
There are colleges like the University of Missouri that are reforming because they lost a quarter of their students. They don’t want to change, but they don’t want to close down, either.
If we can start putting that economic and social pressure on colleges, we could get reform underway well before political pressure builds.
And if you deny the SJW generating programs both students and money, you’re starving them next semester.
Colleges could save massive money by shutting down useless majors and departments. Eliminate “Studies.” Gut “diversity” programs, which are nothing more than anti white male cliques anyway. Cut back on faculty that does nothing but conduct obscure research that’s of no value. And establish a code of conduct that swiftly punishes the Auntie Fugh crowd and other thugs.
We stop using their services. Education is going on-line anyway as colleges will be a thing of the past not too far from now. Going to hurt college towns like Flagstaff, where I live. Should help in the long run as the extreme liberals that inhabit our city will have to ply their wares some place else.
Government dictates what is to be taught in some instances...states should be able to dictate American History, American geography, and the Constitution and Declaration of Independence be taught in grade schools as well as high schools. It should be law.
If someone shows up and says “shut down this department”, the fascists scream fascism.
Cut back their funding and enrollment, and a few remain in a corner of the university but don’t have the disproportionate power or influence on or off campus.
By “shut down” I mean “defund.” And let ‘em howl. They’re going to anyway.
