"Just in case you hadn't noticed, the year is 2005, not 1955."

Who cares. This nonsense needs to stop and stop NOW. Just because another year has passed doesn't mean we're supposed to be more immoral to meet the wishes of the immoral. And how this mindset was ever allowed to control anything is beyond me. It's beyond time to take this nonsense to task and correct it. And getting rid of this morally questionable nonsense is a good start.

Far more likely that it was a couple of Andrea Dworkin's disciples - anti-sex feminists - doing the complaining.

Yet another reader blamed the action on the "conservative/moral 'revolution' in academia," saying such "academic prudes" are "throwbacks to a 1950s-era cultural myopia that sees only a very narrow range of intellectual and moral choices available to us, and [they] like it that way."

ROFLMAO!!!

Seriously, that dude's got some massive truth decay.

There is no "conservative/moral revolution" in academia, especially. If that were true, then such moral decay wouldn't have happened--even at a notoriously liberal place like GWU.

And, if such a revolution was taking place, then why are 90+5 of professors flaming Liberals? Why are there still strong Liberal groups on campus? Why are universities still more or less advanced Socialist indoctrination camps?

Yes, conservative and religious groups may be gaining steam, but sadly, they're still in the minority.

It also isn't a throwback to the fifties; it's a renaissance of traditional mores, values and ethics that have existed since the dawn of civilized man. It's the driving away of the moral bankruptcy that has eaten away our nation and our society for the last few decades.

But since such mores, values and ethics have been nonexistent for as long as my peers and I can remember, is it any wonder that my generation actually thinks this?

Are American colleges vicious and active purveyors of filth like Socialism and free sex? Is the sky blue and the grass green?

It should be crystal clear--and GWU is but one "sore thumb" example. The whole system needs to be completely gutted and rebuilt solidly on traditional mores, values, and ethics. And the best way to do this is to keep plugging away. How can we do this, you might ask?

It's simple. We all have to come together. By sponsoring groups in and near college towns that gives conservative students not just an outlet, but a chance to impact the community at large, can we all work to chip the Liberal chokehold on academia.
