I was at a large eastern University as a sophomre in 1965. The same paranoid atmosphere was alive and well in my history classes.... 1965.

It's much worse now. We must understand, imo, that if just another generation of kids is indoctrinated in the ideas of the left, the anti-Americanism etc., this country will have little chance very soon to have decent conservatives elected.

Something must be done to correct the education of the young .... VERY SOON.

I taught for a while under an ultra-liberal head of department. He was convinced that the Bible can mean just about anything you want it to. I'm hardly a fundamentalist, but it seems the only viewpoint these liberals can't tolerate is one that is at variance with their own. I was always friendly, but politely disagreed with him at a public meeting - big mistake. My contract didn't get renewed. I can honestly say I drew heaps of students to my classes, and judging from their written feedback they liked me a lot. Shame really.

"I saw this "takeover" start to happen back in high school ...that was 1965.."

I briefly attended City College in NYC back in the late 70s, it was all in full swing by then. Commies, nothing but commies, as the man said. I had my English professor tell me I had been wrong to use the word "effiminate" because "we don't use that word, it insults women" an assertion I strongly disputed. She gave me a decent grade anyway, since that was her ONLY criticism. I'm sure I needed help with my spelling, but, oh well, never mind.

My daughter (a staunch right winger, God love her, she's a gift!) is in the thick of it now. She told me this weekend: I have to make sure I quote Karl Marx, because my English Professor loves him so!

She's got no use for these people, but she will Barbara Streisand them to death, if needed. I get such a kick out of my kid, I always want to bash the commies in the head, but she's more into the ju-jitsu approach.
