University of Delaware BUSTED!
The Daily Change ^ | 04282009 | TDC

Posted on 04/28/2009 7:45:44 AM PDT by TheDailyChange

“In 2007, the University of Delaware’s Office of Residence Life used mandatory activities to coerce students to change their thoughts, values, attitudes, beliefs, and habits to conform to a highly specified social, environmental, and political agenda. Following FIRE’s campaign, which called the attention of the national media and the blogosphere to the Orwellian program, university President Patrick Harker terminated the program, effective immediately. This video explains the program’s invasive thought-reform activities, the horrified reactions of students and the press, and FIRE’s response. ”

Professor Jan Blits, of the University of Delaware Honors Program said:

“The immediate effects were to intimidate and humilate students, the long term effect is to teach conformity, students should not think for themselves, they should follow the dictates of some authority.”

“This is what they meant by citizenship, to teach students that America is an oppressive country, and they are responsible and they must change in order to change America.”

No surprise here...
This IS the state that continued to elect Biden to the Senate - with NO possible justification.
