A mandatory University of Delaware program requires residence hall students to acknowledge that "all whites are racist" and offers them "treatment" for any incorrect attitudes regarding class, gender, religion, culture or sexuality they might hold upon entering the school, according to a civil rights group.
"Somehow, the University of Delaware seems terrifyingly unaware that a state-sponsored institution of higher education in the United States does not have the legal right to engage in a program of systematic thought reform. The First Amendment protects the right to freedom of conscience the right to keep our innermost thoughts free from governmental intrusion. It also protects the right to be free from compelled speech," said a letter from Samantha Harris, director of legal and public advocacy for The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education to university President Patrick Harker.
The organization cited excerpts from the university's Office of Residence Life Diversity Education Training documents, including the statement:
"A RACIST: A racist is one who is both privileged and socialized on the basis of race by a white supremacist (racist) system. 'The term applies to all white people (i.e., people of European descent) living in the United States, regardless of class, gender, religion, culture or sexuality. By this definition, people of color cannot be racists, because as peoples within the U.S. system, they do not have the power to back up their prejudices, hostilities, or acts of discrimination

While all of the departments on a modern university campus are suspect (I have actually seen with my own eyes a PC chemistry textbook), some departments are worse than others. Sociology departments are the vangard of all that is evil on college and university campi. They must go first.
But the various departments within institutions of "higher" learning are usually highly segregated. Department heads, departmental offices, and the individual offices of professors attached to that department are usually located in a single building. Most of that departments classes will normally be in that same building.
Which brings us to the solution: smart bombs!
First we take out the sociology department and then, any department that has the word "studies" right before the word "department." After that, most of the other departments will fall into line. Then we re-evaluate after six months or so.
If done on a Monday morning, this solution will also have the side benefit of ridding the campus of most of the its ugly women.
Unfortunately, in Delaware, a fair amount of them (not all) are racist and have institutionalized it. The University is well-meaning but misguided in their "solutions."
What they should do is just fire the incompetent, whoever or whatever color they are, and the racism problem will take care of itself. They spend way too much time protecting what I call the "First State Clique." These people are so protected, they can't get arrested even if they shot someone dead in the street. One of their members stole 1.6 million from Perry Anthony Salon and only got 3 years in prison and has to pay restitution (big deal).
Where racism and favoritism is, you can bet the First State Clique is behind it.
Thank you.
