And parents wonder why college tuition is so dam high. Remove courses like these, fire the professors, and get rid of the staff.

With the exception of hard (versus soft) majors (medicine, engineering, etc) there is little purpose in wasting time with a university or college. This is an excellent example of WHY.

“Social justice” is a liberal contrivance that makes “victim” a job description.

In the past, ‘Social Justice’ was hanging horse thieves and murderers.

I’m still waiting for the freeloader museum to be finished. I wonder if they’ll make a profit.
