And think of how many students don’t have the guts to stand up and challenge them the way this one did.
Sad state of affairs on the vast majority of college campuses today.
You MUST understand that the university system is like a giant gulag! They hold the key to the students’ futures. I was faced with a choice after being graded down: shut up, get my “license” or diploma, and get out as fast as possible with my magna cum laude in tact, or fight.
Remember, none of us went to university to fight a war! We were in a submissive posture, vulnerable via the grading system to having our futures denied. With big student loans to pay back and even scholarship money threatened, it is only a question of survival not one of cowardice. I noticed most students kept quiet, took tests and got out.
The university system with its closed “union” shop called tenure is a mental concentration camp that take vulnerable open minds and turn them into jihadis.
If you do not understand my point, you haven't been to college in the last 30 years. Yes, this was occurring decades ago! Primary education since I was in college has insured that the university social sciences will never be challenged by opposing ideas because the vast American educational system has created a nation of broken minds, negative spirits, hostile to reason thus anything Western Civilization created.
This issue changed the course of my life and those I love. It is personal. American universities are the intellectual enemy of the nation. To expect young minds, faced with towering debt and hopeless futures (as it looked after the final nail in the coffin of Obama) to be courageous and stand up to insanity, reveals a lack of understanding of the big picture. Even though I possessed that courage, it became clear to me that the battle must be fought after getting out of the gulag.
