This is a big part of what the University of Missouri and copycat racist crybully protests were about. Making racist indoctrination mandatory on campus not only provides jobs and entitlements for the crybullies, but perpetuates the cycle.
They got their way at the University of Michigan.
The University of Michigan has added a three-year diversity requirement to its Ross School of Business undergraduate curriculum that, among other things, will teach their students how race, gender and sexual orientation "connect to larger systems of power, privilege and oppression."
The classes, which include "Identity 101" and "Entering into, Engaging with and Exiting Communities across Difference", are mandatory for graduation and emphasize "identity, diversity and experience," said Lynn Wooten, associate dean for undergraduate programs.
Wooten explained that the initiative began with an effort by the Black Student Union who wanted to improve the racial climate on campus, and then others joined in their cause.
Here's the sort of stuff they'll be improving the racial climate on campus with... Beverly Daniel Tatum's paper from the hatecrazed "white privilege conference" which predictably spews intersectionality. The message is even more predictably about white privilege.
There are mandatory "reflection papers" to discuss your identity and confess your guilt and no "vague generalities" are allowed.
The Ross Business School is ranked as one of the top undergraduate business schools in the country, and was ranked 4th by U.S. News and World Report for 2015.
Past tense.
I would not hire their graduates under any circumstances
An Old-Fashioned Education is a gateway site with dozens of links to websites, online books, etc. that support a traditional curriculum.
Students and parents with a shred of common sense need to sue these universities and their Maoist SJWs until they bleed.
Swiftly and brutally NOW.
If this crap is allowed to spread, America is done.
We are long past the point of pissing and moaning and tsk-tsking on internet message boards, or waiting for the next election and hoping Trump or Cruz will save us. Pushback is what’s called for.
Activism in every form—in the courts, and on the streets.
Has your son thought about Hillsdale College or Patrick Henry College? I feel the way you do, but there are some alternatives if he really wants to attend. Just a thought. Have a good evening.
TO #18: Send your son to a good community college if you have one around. Check out their classes and general policies. Should be better than the Marxist messes that pass for universities today.
If it is state funded, speak to your local reps about problems you find in the PC arena.
As for those who graduated from “universities and colleges”, stop all alumni donations until this crap is stopped. If not, tell them to bug off.
No, he doesn’t want to, thanks.
His job is training him for certified welding inspector.
Hillsdale would be lovely though. :)
He’s getting training to become a certified welding inspector.
Only school he wants is gunsmith school.
Robert Bork wrote in his book, “Slouching towards Gamorah” that what happened on college campuses in the 1960s was nothing short of demonic. Being a professor and Dean, he saw it first hand. What is happening today goes far beyond what happened in the 60s...demonic manifestation...
I think I would go in a Col. Sanders suit...
I understand you need to “earn” your degree BUT you’re also a paying customer. It’s the only industry that can treat customers like absolute dirt and get away with it.
The only reason there’s no “student bill of rights” is because they’re broke, in debt and wouldn’t consider suing the school for discrimination. After graduating they don’t have to deal with it anymore so nothing is ever done about the BS.
ANY of these schools that receive a PENNY in federal money should have the crap sued out of them for discrimination. How is this not racism? These students should accuse the professors of creating a “hostile” environment and being a victim of “aggression’s” causing them distress. Turn the tables on them. Beat them at their own game. It’s just unhinged racism where liberal cowards won’t stand up and tell these idiots to grow up and stop whining.
Christendom, Liberty, Patrick Henry ...
Or send her to a conservative school like Liberty University.
If Liberty rolls out online degree programs in a lot of areas like entrepreneurship and business and liberal arts, they could find a massive enrollment spike.
Uncle HO would agree.
It’s also your white privilege to not donate to the school or let them know that it would be hypocritical of them to accept money earned as a result of white privilege.
Why don’t these kids sue? They should sue.
I am glad to see this. It is high time that we celebrate white privilege, supremacy and economic superiority. Let the underprivileged suck it up and grovel at our feet. Makes me feel so good!
