Indoctrination David Horowitz writes about the two Universities of Texas: Graduate students in an Introduction to Women's and Gender Studies course, for example, are provided with a reading list that includes scores of texts written from a radical viewpoint. Only one text blatantly criticizes the radical feminist perspective. This is a book written by two founders of women's studies who subsequently left the field, because they felt it had become totally devoted to a political ideology to the point that its practitioners regularly denied scientific findings that conflicted with their political agendas. How many parents are unwittingly contributing to their offspring's maleducation, and enabling the continuation of such nonsense, by paying the outrageous tuitions at institutions like this?

It is sad people are shelling out tens of thousands of dollars to turn their daughters into unhappy, dysfunctional man-haters. Posted by Mike Puckett at February 27, 2007 09:10 AMI can only imagine the thoughts running through an interviewer's mind when the candidate has one of those "studies" degrees (e.g. women's studies, minority studies, etc.). Who would want to hire a trained malcontent? What do they have to offer to any company or organization? Some college graduates are upset that their degree doesn't automatically entitle them to a cushy job. The sad fact is that too many of them have no marketable skills or anything positive to offer. They'd better get used to asking, "Would you like a muffin with your latte?" Posted by Larry J at February 27, 2007 09:31 AMMike,
What is the end of class score if the student comes to class, contributes, turns in all the assignments and then as a social movement goes out and joins the Republican, Libertarian or Constitutional Party? Posted by Steve at February 27, 2007 10:02 AMThere is no alternative to throwing tuition money on one of these institutions, because there are no other inistitutions. As for the employment, graduates of those programs do not go into companies (except narrow fields where they fit like hand in glove: Org Com people go into PR/Consulting/Ads, etc.). All those man-hating waste products of society go to community colleges and spread da word there. It's sort of funny to see how they evolve... First they want to defend the thesis. Then, they think that it's too hard and switch to comps. And they say, "I want to be an activist and teach at a community college, why bother with thesis anyway". There is no alternative to throwing tuition money on one of these institutions, because there are no other inistitutions. Well, if parents quite paying tuition for their kids who wanted to take these nutty majors, the departments would probably dry up. I doubt if they could subsist on scholarships alone.

If there were only some way of disentangling McDonald Observatory from this mess ... Posted by Jay Manifold at February 27, 2007 11:05 AMThere is no alternative to throwing tuition money on one of these institutions, because there are no other inistitutions. Sadly, A&M use to be an exception, but that's changing. Posted by Leland at February 27, 2007 01:25 PMThere is no alternative to throwing tuition money on one of these institutions, because there are no other inistitutions. There are the 'assessment schools' of Excelsior College, Charter Oak State College and Thomas Edison State College. These are regionally accredited schools (the "good" accreditation) and an undergraduate degree from Excelsior can be had for considerably less than ten large. The external degree from Ohio University is also an option. Depending on the student's ultimate educational goal, the above schools can be a quite good option. Followed with a graduate degree from a name school...well, you know. Posted by D Anghelone at February 27, 2007 05:04 PMPost a comment |
