Ha ha! You guys are right, and I've spent enough time on campuses to know to choose my words better.

I think it's a world of difference to force students to take a multiculturalism class, for its own sake, than to take a true history or lit course.

And in the schools I've worked at or attended, European history was NEVER a requirement, but SOME history sequence was required. In other words, folks got their history block checked off in some way, although not neccessarily with a Euro course.

No disagreement here. Still, it's not a huge thing to worry about. What cyborg says is 100% on--if you force students to take such an asinine class, it'll backfire on them...
