This is nothing new. When I went to the University of Maryland, the feminist studies department took all the male names out of the phone book and made a display declaring that we were all “potential rapists.” University never did a damn thing about it.

I wonder what the university would do if you took all the mid eastern names out of the phone book and made a display declaring them all potential terrorists.

I remember that. I also remember thinking the guys should have done the same but with female names and a display that said "Potential Ho's".

Reports from U Delaware students, blogged at CHE yesterday One RA was threatened..sounds like the commies at UD are panicking.

1) I am so happy that FIRE blew open this case. I work in the student affairs office and the place went crazy when the letter from FIRE arrived. THe truth is that they created a well intended program, but crossed the line in many ways. Yes until this week the program was mandatory and they have temporarily suspended the mandatory nature of it, but once the attention goes away especially with Parents Weekend arriving they want to look good. Boy can they lie.

2) I have been an RA for the past two years and have not been comfortable with this program. It has gotten out of hand and demanding of students. Yesterday I was approached to be an advocate of the program. Several of my RA friends have been asked to be available for talking with the press. When I declined I was taken aside and told that my future as an RA was in jeopardy as was future a student. I decided to stand-up for myself. I read the university response to FIRE and they seem to want to divert the attention away from the programs flaws and talk about how FIRE make U Del. students look. Well it was U Del. students that had the backbone and insight to bring this issue up to FIRE. Go Hens! FIRE believes in us.

The inverse could have been done to the women with the label potential prostitutes.

Did you take the female names out of the phone book and make a display declaring they were all “potential prostitutes?”

I would have.
