Wayne State Drops Math Requirement, May Add Diversity Requirement
Michigan Capitol Confidential ^ | June 17, 2016 | Derek Draplin

Posted on 06/18/2016 10:50:54 AM PDT by C19fan

A faculty committee has proposed adding a three credit hours requirement in diversity to the general education curriculum at Wayne State University. It also recommended that WSU drop its university-wide requirement in mathematics, an idea that was carried out on June 13.

“We are proposing the creation of specific ‘Diversity’ courses, with students required to take one course in this designation,” said a document from the General Education Reform Committee, which is recalibrating what the university will expect from all students who earn a degree from the state university. It released the proposal in May.

To make sure they turn out unemployable graduates that will go directly to a successful life on welfare.

They should be made to pay the students to take any classes like that. Charging tuition for drivel should be a felony.

Common Core math is being ditched in favor Hate Whitey propaganda.

What’s the difference?

For the past 20 years, everybody I know has been hounding me to get a Masters Degree.

I still haven't, and won't.

College degrees these days are completely useless.

I've seen too many people that are barely literate that say they're "working on my degree."

I'm not wasting my time or money on useless crap.

If I had to do it all over again, I would have been a plumber, diesel mechanic, or welder.

Choose skin color over brains. It’s the liberal way.

This really makes a lot of sense. Everyone who has looked at the breakdown of math scores can clearly see that math is racist. https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2015/09/03/sat-scores-drop-and-racial-gaps-remain-large

2015 Math scores, SAT:

Black - 428
White - 534

More dumbed down education.

That consists of whites apologizing for their racism and promising to be good liberals when they graduate.

And you wonder why college is so expensive.

Wayne State has decided to drop all college level courses and requirements and focus on teaching socially correct subjects like protesting and partying.

So what?

You can divide college degree programs into two categories: thosethat require calculus and those that don’t.

If calculus wasn’t a requirement for your degree, then odds are it wasn’t worth shinola.

The lone exception may be a business degree (which requires accounting), but other than that, I can’t think of a single worthwhile degree program that doesn’t require at least basic calculus.

I agree. It’s better to go into a trade. At the very least, it makes you that much more self-sufficient.

They can do both!

“If New York City recognizes 31 gender classifications, the federal government sets disability access standards, and a struggling shop has only 200 square feet of floors pace how long will the owner keep a public restroom and risk lawsuit?”
