Nope. They were places that leftists operated, and if you failed to rethink according to the reeducation you were killed.

It started, however, with edicts like Tim's.

Funny, I don't recall anyone proposing to teach ID or creationism as an established fact.

To humanists, any suggestion of uncertainty in any element of evolution is unforgivable.

It's a good start. Now if only we can get rid of nuttiness which has infected the social sciences and humanities, we would be able to return our learning institutions to their former glories. We should still keep a few radical feminists around, but only on display, as evidence of our common ancestry with apes.
