Rack one up for the thought police. Regulation of the mind — the next big government program.
lol... yeah, next I'm going demand that my children get college credit for an arithmetic textbook that teaches 2+2=5. College give course credit for classes they believe meet their academic standards. That's the prerogative and *duty* as a post secondary institution.

This is clearly an overreach. Universities have typically accepted transcripts and SAT/ACT scores as the basis for admission. This is the first instance, that I know of, that a University has refused an accredited transcript based on the content of the course. If the state has already accredited the content of these courses, why does UC have the right to discredit them? Do you mean to tell me that I may be denied entrance to a university because of something my high school math teacher might have taught? If that is your position, then you are primed for the Brave New World.
