I was fortunate to grow up long before the era of political correctness. Additionally, my college experience was in engineering school, which didn't leave much time for such crap.
As I said, I was fortunate. However, I would have relished arguing with some of the mental cripples on the left at present day universities.

I grew up in Mass. Everything was lib crap. I discovered cliff notes in my older sister's closet. Some kids get turned onto drugs--I got turned on to Cliff notes. I am sad to say that I got through most of High School and almost all of college without reading an assigned book. Sad because I waited years before reading some of the classics (Twain, Melville, etc.) Too boring for a 15 year old kid.
On the other hand, I always had a book, usually history or current events sitting on my nightstand. Still do. It is never too late to start!
